About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The sequel to Instinct, a Sunday Times bestseller

Dr Dylan Reinhart is no stranger to solving crimes.

When an Ivy League professor is murdered, Reinhart reunites with his old partner Detective Elizabeth Needham. With his unrivalled mind for criminal psychology and Needham's investigative experience, Reinhart is confident that together they can find the killer, and close the case.

But a terrifying attack on New York sends the city into chaos. In the aftermath, a name from Reinhart's past emerges on the list of victims – a name he thought he'd left behind.

As long-buried secrets threaten to derail everything he's worked for, can he keep his life together long enough to outsmart the killer?

Or has Reinhart finally met his match?

Dillon is such an interesting character - an amalgamation of opposites. Fun with a serious intent

2nd book in the series and didn’t disappoint. Couldn’t stop listening - kept me on the edge of my seat and I wasn’t going to stop until I knew how it ended. Well written with just enough twists and read very well too. Looking forward to the next one.

Excellent
