About this listen

A wave of apparently random homicides is sweeping through their idyllic seaside town of Helsingborg. The murders have no pattern, no order, no reason.

The perpetrator is immune to psychological profiling; forensically untraceable; utterly invulnerable to modern police techniques. The body count is growing. But lead investigator Fabian Risk is distracted by his mission to expose a corrupt colleague, and his boss Astrid is spiralling back into addiction.

As the hunt for the solution becomes ever more desperate, their tight-knit team begins to unravel.

Motive X is both an explosive, multilayered thriller and a fearless exploration of the darkest side of human nature.

I am really gripped by this series. It's very dark at times but the characters are brilliantly realised and the plot has loads of twists. It's definitely one to listen to as part of the full set, as some of the plot lines are obviously left dangling for a reason. I thought the narration was fantastic.

It's got me hooked...

Loved this book. Brilliantly written and read but it just ends suddenly! Mid story...no warning. Feel let down,
