About this listen

The Lost Girls is a dark and twisty supernatural thriller, perfect for fans of Stephen King and Neil Gaiman.

Edinburgh student Rose MacLeod has been losing time for as long as she can remember. Days and weeks disappear, leaving terrifying gaps in her memory. Now she is seeing horrifying visions - waking nightmares of violence and death. Around the world young women like her are being killed, and Rose has a ringside seat.

Mal Fergusson was raised to hunt demons across Scotland. With his father dead and his brother in a coma, he no longer believes in the grand battle between good and evil. Instead, he scrapes a living as an investigator and hit man for the supernatural Mafia of Edinburgh.

Tensions are rising in Scotland’s capital, and Mal must capture Rose to keep his demonic boss sweet - but is he really willing to harm an innocent to do so?

I usually like this author, but the narration is so bad, I cannot connect. It is like she is reading a list, no attempt to differentiate between characters, no space between paragraphs or chapters. Intriguing story , try reading yourself.

I think it is an interesting story, but the narration spoils it

Going to buy the paperback as I am really into the unfolding story but I just cannot get past the narration. I can’t put my finger on it really and tried different speeds but I keep blanking big sections and having to rewind, as it’s so monotone. And I wince every time they say ‘Aisling’ . I’m stopping on chapter 5 and moving to a paperback instead.

Gutted as the story seems great but narration…

Not sure if my screen is stuck or I am having to give a review before I can navigate away - hope it’s the former

The story was intriguing and I wanted to know what would happen so I stuck with it. The narration needed improving and made it very hard to listen to. I had to keep rewindind and listening numerous times. There was no definition between characters

Great story, not great narration

I’ll start by saying I really enjoyed this before I get picky. I’m not sure if this isn’t aimed at Young Adults and if the ideas had gone into an adult novel it could have been even more intriguing

An easy read
