About this listen

A dark, compelling Marnie Rome novel, rich with psychological insight, from the winner of the Theakston's Crime Novel of the Year. For fans of Clare Mackintosh and Alex Marwood.

The fragile young girl who causes the fatal car crash disappears from the scene. A runaway who doesn't want to be found, she only wants to return to the man who understands her and offers her warmth, comfort, a home. He gives her shelter. Just as he gives shelter to the other lost girls who live in his house.

D.I. Marnie Rome thinks that she knows families, their secrets and their fault lines. But as she begins investigating the girl's disappearance nothing can prepare her for what she's about to face.

I won't write a long review, but having listened to book one with enthusiasm - it's not often one finds a six book series that's good and that one likes - but this narrator is pants. The householder sounds as if he's closer to early eighties than forties and the narrator is just too, too - too much. I've heard her do something half good,so I thought with this writer, ,well, it's pretty well narrator proof. Well how wrong was I? Very very wrong.She absolutely ruined these books. Where was Abigail Thaw? Too expensive? On a prolonged holiday due to a particularly heavy handed lockdown? Involved in a heist and caught, currently serving a twelve stretch at her majesty's pleasure? Imogen Church is useless.I wish I could just snap my fingers and get rid of her mouth. I want to drag her back into the studio by her hair and re direct her completely. One of us might not survive the experience, but it wouldn't be her

Where was Abigail Thaw?

Plots are complicated, characters are well drawn and believable, Imogen Church is an excellent narrator. What’s not to love? Highly recommended
