Wow!
This is my first book by this author and I’m delighted there is a long series to enjoy. The narrator is excellent too. The book deals with violence against women in different situations. In other hands this could have been laboured, gratuitous or even exploitative. The handling of the various storylines is brilliant - sensitive, empathetic and forensic. The characters are so convincing and the world is really credible. I may have to go straight to the next one in the series or start at the beginning…

Wonderful stuff!
This long awaited tale in the series involving a Maeve and Joss is the best so far. That said, they are all 5* star reads. Both the story and the back story are compelling and exciting. The characters are richly drawn and Caroline Lennon’s narration is faultless as always. For anyone picking this up, I advise picking a quiet place where there will be no interruptions for the final chapter. It had me hiding away and on the edge of my seat. Enjoy!

A fantastic series
I have now read the whole series and preordered the next one, I have enjoyed them immensely, the character development, the plot the twists. This is latest and although stand alone I recommend you read them all. I found I could not stop listening and found myself listening with AirPods whilst my husband slept. I was unsure that all the procedures were accurate but it’s a novel. Great narration lovely to listen to you will not be disappointed especially riveting is the relationship between Maeve and Josh and the true to life ‘bitchiness’ of the office. The one thing I found is sometimes Maeve is too nice and I wanted her to fight back verbally.

Superb
I have listened to this entire series back to back, twice, the narration is sublime and the characters are brought to life clearly. Its rare for an audio book to transport me into my imagination like reading does, but I suddenly realised I was totally immersed in the story. This series is intelligently written, with plenty of clear plot lines and action. Unlike many police procedurals the characters are very recognisable, but never tip over into becoming caricatures. I think it's worth listening to them in order

Well written Story
A fantastic book that very cleverly deals with a difficult subject that unfortunately so many women have to deal with on a daily basis. The audio book I just couldn't stop listening to. One of the best I've listened to in a good few years. I highly recommend it.

6* book!
I love this series and this is the best yet, I hope there will be another book.
Get me! With the lexicon of words at my disposal I chose such a seemingly prosaic one as “love”. This book needs no hyperbole nor advertising hype, it literally speaks for itself. It’s beautifully written, with a mix of the mundane, suspense, humour, (which is very much like my own), no spoilers, but the “bamboo” made me laugh it was so perfect at that point, and I think the whole book is like that. The characters and relationships are real! And I’ll miss them.
I find myself veering between, tension, hope, sadness’s, holding my breath and smiling! For me, it’s that good.
The combination of Jane Casey, as author, and the superb narration by Caroline Lennon, is a marriage made in audiobook heaven.
I loved it! I dislike recommending books to friends as everyone has different taste. I await the next instalment.

Irritating narration
I’m enjoying the story but not the narration. The voice doesn’t match the character in my opinion and, worse than that, the emphasis on the wrong words makes me think the narrator hasn’t taken in the meaning of the sentence before reading it. The result of this is that I can’t lose myself in the story so easily. Unfortunately this can’t be detected from the sample of narration.
