From the no.1 bestseller Val McDermid: journalist Lindsay Gordon becomes embroiled in a world of secrets, lies and blackmail in this gripping thriller
When Alison Maxwell, a well-known Glaswegian journalist, is found murdered, the police look no further than the owner of the scarf use to strangle her, Alison’s former lover, Jackie

Fellow journalist Lindsay Gordon doesn’t believe that Jackie is capable of murder and digs into Alison’s life to find the true culprit.

She soon discovers that Alison secretly kept records of her affairs. Suddenly the list of suspects is a mile long. Jackie’s trial has already begun, and Lindsay is running out of time – can she find Alison’s killer before it’s too late?

Not as good as other books by Val it seems to have lost punch. But saying that I still listened to the book.

The book was ok but would’ve been so much better with a different narrator! Her voice is very harsh and makes listening difficult

Shame about the narrator

.. with enough twists and turns. A surprising ending. In fact the whole book was unpredictable. Only spoiled by the narration which is too high pitched for headphones. Have to turn the volume right down

A good plot

I am enjoying the story, once I’ve worked out who all the characters are, too many female names thrown in at the start which causes slight confusion. I’m Scottish and find the Scottish accents tolerable, however, Helen’s Scouse accent is dreadful (cross between poor Liverpool and Irish) almost enough to make me just want to fast forward when she speaks. I will persevere, but disappointed with the narration.

Name Heavy and poor Accents

Very enjoyable. Good twisty story as always! Look forward to the next one. Very good characters.

Excellent!
