About this listen

When writer Rob Fallon goes out one night and ends up with his best-friend's girlfriend, Jenny, he's feeling guilty before anything's even happened. But guilt quickly turns to shock when two men break into Jenny's apartment, abduct her and try to kill Rob.

When Rob reports this to the police, no one believes him. And when he speaks to Jenny's father, he says she's on holiday abroad. Rob knows Jenny's life's in danger and starts asking questions. Soon he's the target of brutal killers who are as terrifying as they are elusive.

But what do they want? And what does it have to do with an ordinary girl like Jenny? Either Rob finds out or he's dead. It's that simple....

this story is not as bad as some of the reviews read here. however the description of the storyline is very confusing as it concerns what I felt was a lesser story. I enjoyed this but the plot is wafer thin and I didn't feel anything for the characters. Worth listening to so you can appreciate a good thriller when you here one.

Confused by preface

I have listened to most of Simon Kernick’s books. This one is right up there amongst the best. Simon’s pace is exactly captured by Paul Thornley’s , an outstanding partnership. I do hope there are more double acts to come.

Fast moving and enthralling
