About this listen

Elvie McCulloch's sister, Sophie, has been missing for 57 days. She went out for a run - and never came home. Several young women in the area have disappeared in similar circumstances, and Elvie's family fears the worst.

Teaming up with retired detective Billy Hopkirk, Elvie determines to find out the truth. But as the pair alternately collaborate with and infuriate investigating police detectives Anderson and Costello, they find themselves up against a terrifying enemy. Someone they call The Night Hunter.

Not a lot of Anderson and Costello but still an excellent book just the same. I loved it.

enjoyed the plot but preferred the other books in this series told from the detectives point of view. Found this a little tedious at times.

great story

I am so disappointed as I have listened to all the other books in this series and loved them. I lasted thorough the first three chapters but had to give up before tearing my hair out. The story is soooooo boring. Shame on the author.

don't buy!!!

I’ve been following the Anderson and Costello series and noticed that this was narrated by a different voice actor. I skipped it as it winds me up when they swap narrators half way through. I went onto Tears of Angels. The main character in this book appears in’Tears’. I was so confused as I hadn’t listened to this. I ended up skipping back and was glad I did. It’s an odd but good book. Think I’m going to have to restart ‘Tears’! I had to speed up the narrator to 1.1 as it was a tad slow.



Don’t skip this one!

I love "whodunnit" books and this one does not disappoint for interesting characters and an intriguing plot. I did find some of the more far fetched elements a little disappointing (without spoiling anything; the police do not, to my mind, regularly embrace a member of the public into their inner circle with such utter indiscretion - and said characters efforts to solve the crime with suggestions that had not occurred to the detectives themselves was slightly annoying and reminiscent of "Miss Marple"! ) Nevertheless, the remaining storyline was very well written and engaging enough for me to stick with it. I was slightly anxious about a new narrator for this series of books but Cathleen McCarron does an absolutely sterling job.

Entertaining but far fetched - great narration
