About this listen

A mysterious advert in a newspaper promising to restore hope to the hopeless brings together four strangers.

None realising they will end up investigating a twisted and troubling crime that threatens their very futures.

Mitch, a former Crime Scene Investigator, Olivia, a brilliant PhD student, and Florence, a middle-aged solicitor, find themselves working with an enigmatic newspaper Editor who refers to himself only as Ed.

But when Maddie, a teenage girl, disappears in sinister circumstances, the team is drawn into the hunt for her. And when a neighbour’s body is discovered in a pool of blood, they realise they must use their unique skills in a race against time.

But can they solve the mystery before it’s too late? And before Ed’s shadowy past overcomes them all?

The Editor is an accomplished and truly compelling crime mystery which will engross you from the outset until its thrilling conclusion. If you are a fan of authors like Susan Lewis, Erin Kinsley or J.R. Ellis, you'll love this stunning thriller.

Definitely something different from my usual thriller addiction and certainly enjoyable but the whole story just felt slightly detached and the characters were two dimensional. it felt like listening to a comic rather than a novel but not an unpleasant experience.

intriguing but it never really gripped me...
