About this listen

In the darkest parts of the City of Light, Eva Scott is searching for her brother's killers. She is caught up in a tangle of deception he left behind, facing violent assault, brutal murderers and deeply embedded corporate corruption.

At the heart of it is a dirty biotech business making a lethal profit from compromising human health. Behind that, an organisation with a devastating viral blackmail tool. Their targets? Global power, capital and manipulation. And Eva.

Alex Blackmore gained an LLB and LPC in Law at Nottingham University and went on to practice as a finance lawyer in the City. After five years in the world of corporate finance and banking, she moved into legal and financial writing and editing before becoming a freelancer full time. She runs a copywriting business and a fashion retail website championing new designers, and lives in North London.

Critic reviews

"An exciting, fast-moving conspiracy thriller in the classic Hitchcock mould' - bestselling author, Emlyn Rees' Alex has forged a unique tale." (Mystery People)
All stars

Gripping storyline but with excessive repetition and vocab. Performance a bit slow. A better edotor would have made a big difference

Good story but needed a better editor

I really enjoyed this book and the way it was read.
The plot was uncanny with what has happened with pandemic and gave food for thought.
It was quite long but all the avenues were explained and you did not feel as in so many books cheated at the end .

Well written with lots of close combat action by the female lead and too many subplots and unanswered questions for this reader. I did not find myself wanting to spend any more time in the heroines career.

too much too much .

The narrative lurches from one implausible “action” scene to the next. It felt like the storyboard for a b-grade video. The account of an algal infestation alongside a toxic virus was a long way from biological reality and the characters were equally unbelievable. I kept listening in the hope of a resolution but was ultimately disapppointed

Chaotic overkill

It was a good story,but ruined for me by the use of the word suddenly in almost every sentence of the most exciting parts

Good story spoiled
