And his time is running out…

But Rob soon realises the Carters aren't just dangerous criminals. If he can't stop them, the consequences will be explosive.

Jane Casey is such a good storyteller. I practically inhaled this. If you've not read/listened to the Maeve Kerrigan books, start with those. The only thing that bothered me ever so slightly, is the fact that Rob didn't have a northern accent. He's from Manchester, admittedly from money, but even so, he should have a northern twang.

so good

Enjoyed this. will try more by the same author. Didn't get fed up of the story in fact I'd of liked it to continue a bit longer. Didn't guess the twists either which is always a plus

Enjoyable, kept me interested.

I didn’t realise until I was well into this story that it links with other titles by Jane Casey. The ones where she follows Maeve Kerrigan. In The Outsider, one of her colleagues is now working undercover and his task is to infiltrate a family where the patriarch is involved in nefarious dealings. He’s wealthy, powerful, vindictive and suspicious and has a family tied to him, almost physically.
I really enjoyed this tale as we follow events destined to end in trouble. Well paced and totally gripping in part, a neat psychological thriller that kept me listening and I whipped through this title in a couple of sessions. Great storytelling.

Entertaining

This story gripped me from the very beginning. I made sure to find time to listen wherever and whenever possible. The narration added to the suspense too. it was a lovely surprise to have Maeve and Derwent popping up too. Please keep these stories coming Jane. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Terrifyingly brilliant.
