About this listen

Some games can be deadly.

At first, Detective Chief Superintendent Frankie Sheehan believes the murder mystery game sent to her office is a birthday gift from one of her colleagues. But when Frankie studies the game's contents, she notices a striking resemblance between the 'murder victim' and missing 22-year-old Lydia Callin.

As Frankie and her team investigate, a series of grisly crimes connected to the game are discovered across Dublin city and Lydia's involvement with a shadowy network of murder mystery players becomes clear.

On the hunt for Lydia's murderer, Frankie is drawn more deeply into the game. Every successful move brings her closer to the killer. But the real question is not what happens should she lose - but what happens if she wins.

Police procedural, but detective becomes part of the game. Nicely paced and engaging enough. The game aspect was far fetched and I don’t love a twisted mind story.

I really enjoyed this book.Great twist and kept me interested right to the end.It is annoying the amount of he said/she said used but apart from that its a great read with no waffling just straight to the story and moves at a great pace.

Great read

I just couldn’t really get into it. I’d read a book by the same author previously and it was excellent but this one seemed to drag.

A bit disappointing
