TWO SHATTERED LIVES. CENTURIES APART. BOUND BY A SECRET THAT COULD KILL THEM BOTH.



One February afternoon, Detective Ray Flowers' life is blown apart by a petrol bomb attack. No one can tell him who did it. Or why. Anchorless and alone, he moves to his aunt's country cottage. What he needs is perspective.



BUT THE PAST ISN'T DONE WITH HIM YET.



Instead, he is tormented by visions of Kitty Hallam, a troubled young woman accused of witchcraft. Back in 1643.



Is she a figment of Flowers' imagination or something more?



Whatever the truth, Flowers can't help but be drawn into Kitty's world, sensing their stories are intertwined somehow.



BUT WILL THEIR UNLIKELY CONNECTION PROVE TO BE KITTY'S UNDOING?

Stilted narration. Story jumps back and forth. Poor ending with lots of answered questions. Would avoid any book being narrated by Dan Calley in future.

Terrible stilted narration

I instantly hated the narration, I persevered to chapter 6 and just couldn't take it anymore. The sing song voice with no punctuation was just awful. It might be a good story but I'll not be listening anymore, waste of a credit.

A different narrator needed

A shame they chose this narrator. His sing song delivery, interjected with his sucking in his breath, after every other sentence was truly annoying! The story had Quite an interesting idea though!

Sack the narrator!

I really wanted to enjoy this book but the narrator is awful. I really tried to listen past it, but he has the same monotone voice and inflects at the end of all sentences. I couldn't get past a couple of hours. Such a shame.

Narrator is awful. Didn't finish the book.

The narrator needs replacing. Can't comment on the story as I couldn't hear past the reader. Shame.
