Summary

Book four in a stunning new crime series from 2m+ international bestseller Adam Croft.

An elderly woman collapses and dies during a Sunday morning church service in Oakham. But things aren't quite as innocent as they seem.

Within hours, there's a second unexplained death in Rutland. Then a third. But the victims appear to be completely unconnected.

With the body count rising by the day, DI Caroline Hills and DS Dexter Antoine need to uncover the link before more innocent people die.

Only one thing is certain: a killer walks the streets of Rutland. But no-one knows who the next victim will be, when they will be killed—or why.

Great story, poor narration

This was every bit as good as previous Rutland books. However, it was let down by poor narration. The reader gave no expression or variation. Conversations were difficult to follow due to a lack of difference between the speakers “voices”, no attempt at female voice or any accents.

Great book in a great series

Another great book in the Rutland series but the latest narrator hasn't done the book or the characters justice..
