About this listen

A terrifying novel of a young man who is willing to defy everything. Even death....

Fabian Hightower has been killed in a car crash. At least, that is what a policeman is asking Alex, his mother, to believe. But Alex knows she saw him that morning - at a time when he must have been dead.

When the funeral is over Alex tries hard to forget her bizarre experience. But her mind seems to be playing strange tricks on her, turning her grief into horror. When she turns to a medium her worst fears are realised. Fabian has unfinished business, and he is determined to come back. But why?

Whatever the answer, something terrifies the medium so much she refuses to return. Alex longs to turn to others for support. But there is a secret about Fabian that only she knows - a secret she must never share....

A very entertaining read for all who enjoy supernatural stories. Elements of mystery and the paranormal are blended in the plot, and the result is a binge-worthy listen. Recommended.

Narrator good. Story good. Kept listening, couldn't stop, wanted to know the outcome. Worth a listen.

Story draws you in. Peter James at his best.

This is a book that asks the reader to consider a fundamental question...is there a spiritual world after death? And if so, how is that manifested: in good and evil? Does it spill over into the lives of the living or remain solely in the sphere of something outer worldly? Whether one is a believer or not, there is much to ponder in this book. Personally I did not find everything believable and there were some unexplained events towards the end that left me feeling dissatiisfied.

Failed to convince me.
