About this listen

He knows your name. Where you live. The car you drive.

If you don’t play, your family will die. If you lose, you will.

When DI Joel Norris and DS Lucy Rose begin investigating the death of a young woman, murdered on a quiet country lane, they can’t imagine what lies ahead.

This killer uses his victims like chess pieces in a life-sized contest, with the highest stakes imaginable.

Now Norris and Rose are pawns at the mercy of a twisted rulebook.

Can they beat him at his own game before the next round begins and more innocent lives are taken?

A totally addictive, edge-of-your-seat, crime-thriller that will leave you breathless. Perfect for fans of Cara Hunter, Ian Rankin and Stuart MacBride.

Critic reviews

‘Fast paced thriller that opens with a terrifying bang and doesn’t let up until the last page… Charlie Gallagher has crafted a twisty thriller that oozes fear and foreboding. His real-life experiences as a police detective shine through in the details and his skill as a writer are evident from the first page to the last. A great thriller that will have you reading through your fingers!’

what an awesome journey all the way through, never knowing which way, until the very last moment.

charlie at his best.

An excellent story completely ruined by the narrator. If the narration had been better, I would have been hooked and would not have been able to stop listening.

Poor narration

Gripping from start to finish. Great story with twists and turns and believable characters. I listened straight through.

Excellent.

Good listen/read, enjoyed it from page 1, the only thing I will say is that all the characters on this performance when talking were all of the same tone. Sometimes it was confusing to who was talking as say DI Norris sounded like DS Rose and so on...

Great book

enjoyed the whole build up to the finale, the not sure who was guilty moments, the mind game moments of the game, the characterisation of the people.
