About this listen

He didn’t kill them, he didn’t rape them, he didn’t torture them; his crime was far, far worse.

Three women go missing without trace. A week is enough for the psychopath known in the press as the 'the Soul-Breaker' to destroy them. By the seventh day the women are psychologically dead, like bodies without a soul.

Shortly before Christmas, the Soul-Breaker strikes again, this time in an exclusive psychiatric clinic. The clinic has been cut off by a snowstorm, and the Soul-Breaker is in their midst. Trapped in the clinic, staff and patients band together to protect each other, but in a night of unimaginable terror, the Soul-Breaker shows them that no one is safe.

I do love Sebastian Fitzek's audible dramas. Amok was the best, The child and Therapy were great.
The Soul-Breaker was definitely a psychological thriller to listen to if you like this type of thing I recommend it BUT you do have to concentrate, if I was multitasking, I would realise I had clearly missed some important information so kept having to rewind it, but that is my own fault!
Lots of twists and turns, quite far fetched but very good non the less!
Performances from all the narrators was excellent.

Great performances...

A very good audible drama.... I was a bit disappointed that the ending didn't seem to conclude but I guess that's the point. Gripping storyline and an excellent production.

I love Sebastian Fitzek books and this one its one of his best , amazing performance by audible studio , literally you feel like you are there, locked inside the hospital and cannot escape. Five stars.

I've heard most of the Fitzek dramas, and this is my favourite. A few twists, but not too many, adding power to the biggest twist of them all.

The plot is brilliant. The vast majority of the action is in and around one building during a few hours.

I liked the pitch changes in the narration.

At the end, I wondered what it wold have been like to have heard this for the first time in one sitting, like the student characters. I listened over just 3 days, because I just couldn't leave this alone. I was hooked.

The story was implausible, at parts dull and repetitive. The twist of what and why the soul breaker did what they did - although not entirely predictable, lacked believability. You expect stories of this kind to be an exaggeration of the truth, but in this case, the whole story is just so unlikely it moved into the bizarre. The good performances of some of the cast are what made it worth a listen. But, overall, a little disappointing.
