About this listen

Singmass Close has a sinister past. Reputedly haunted by the ghosts of children, in the 50s it was the hunting ground of the Doll Strangler, a ruthless killer who was never brought to justice.

Now DI Joe Plantagenet wonders whether a copycat killer is at work when the strangled body of teenager Natalie Parkes is found in the same close, a mutilated doll lying by her side. With the recent disappearance of a young female model and an escaped convict at large, this new, horrific murder stretches Joe's team to their limit. But as the bodies start mounting up and Joe's questioning brings him closer to the real strangler, he comes to suspect a shockingly creepy connection between all three cases...

the plot has lots of twists and turns and is complex enough to keep you guessing right up to the end.

Lots of surprises.

Kate Ellis writes well, with even story pacing building to a final solution. Joe Plantagenet is characterised with human frailties sufficient to make him a believeable policeman. All in all a most enjoyable tale.

A carefully crafted detective story.

Great story but ruined by the poor narration - found this with the other books in the series too, should have listened to the other reviews and read the actual books instead.

Narration not the best
