About this listen

After a dramatic change in character, a rather usual middle-aged man begins carrying out a series of rather unusual murders.

Meanwhile Brad Shape, a crime beat reporter for the Manchester Daily News, is looking for the big scoop to revive his flagging career—and his crumbling marriage.

But when he finds one of England's most notorious serial killers, it will be Brad's biggest break...in more ways than one.

Note: this taut, edge-of-your-seat thriller is not for the faint of heart. You've been warned.

The narrator was a bit over dramatic in parts and the pacing of the book was not to my liking. Otherwise a few twists that were entertaining enough to keep you going to the end. No the worst out there. At least it's not 14 hours long. Give it a try.

Very northern crime

I couldn't engage with the main character and his drift into a dangerous world. I found the narrator brought over the almost soulnessness and the apathy of the character well. Book was Ok but carried by the narrator.

interesting premise .

So I had a couple of false starts with this but then I got into it and it really worked. What an interesting premise, I cant say anymore but now I want to read/listen to more by this author. The ending was perfect.

I had to get used to the narration as it is a new narrator for me,but , I found it really suited the story. Once I really got into the story the narration flowed perfectly so it was just at the beginning for me for both.

Started of slow and wasnt sure but got good
