About this listen

Detective Lola Harris is turning over a new leaf. She’s determined to get into shape. Her new personal trainer is merciless when it comes to fitness. Thankfully, he’s also charming and exceptionally good-looking, which helps on a cold early morning run.

But as they puff round a corner in peaceful Pollok Park, Lola glimpses something that shouldn’t be there: a high-end BMW. Doors gaping. And a man and a woman, roped together.

The man is stiff, cold. There’s a bullet wound above one open, staring eye. The woman is unconscious — but alive.

Lola’s early morning run is now a crime scene.

The young woman is Fiona Balfour. She and the dead man were due to be married next month. Fiona says she can’t remember what happened. But Lola’s not sure she believes her.

Then Lola uncovers strange similarities with a case in Liverpool from five years before. Her victim may be alive, but she’s in very real danger.

Lola’s now in a race against time to stop the killer before they return to finish what they started.

Critic reviews

'Lola just keeps getting better and better!' (Margaret Murphy, Dagger-winning author of Before He Kills Again)
'A tightly constructed plot, brilliant characterisation and an ending I did not see coming. Totally absorbing.' (Marion Todd, author of the DI Clare Mackay thriller series)

It was great to see more of Lola and how she is growing as a character whilst the addition of some new characters to help challenge her, plus the old ones that are infuriating, end to Aiden Pierce he’s a great character you just love to hate.

I kept changing my mind who was involved with the killings and still didn’t manage to identify the killer, great twist. Although there’s one character I’m surprised wasn’t, at least in some way, connected to the murders again someone you just love to dislike.

Can’t wait to see how Lola develops in future books!!

Again the narrator was amazing. Can’t think of Lola without hearing Karen’s voice!!

I usually only rate with stars, but this story warrants a few words of praise. My sister requested this series for Christmas, and being a fan of Scottish crime fiction, I decided to add them to my wishlist. While I really enjoyed the first book, this one has had me binge listening. Perfectly paced, threads woven and tied up brilliantly with very credible characters. It doesn't hurt that I'm familiar with the locations chosen by the author. The narrator excels in this instalment. Zero zone out moments. Sets a very high bar for going forward.

Utterly Brilliant!
