About this listen

The gripping new race-against-time thriller by the best-selling author of Relentless, The Last 10 Seconds and The Final Minute.

I had a simple choice. Stay here and almost certainly be discovered.

Or get up and run.

The Witness

When Jane Kinnear sees her lover being murdered, she suddenly finds herself in danger. Taken to an anonymous police safe house, it soon becomes clear that her lover was an MI5 informant with important information about an imminent terrorist attack.

The Detective

DI Ray Mason of Counter Terrorism Command is a man with a controversial past, but his effectiveness at getting results means that he's now been given the task of preventing the attack from taking place. But can he be trusted, and does he know more about the attack than he's letting on?

The Killer

In the safe house, Jane is trying to piece together a description of her lover's killer. But what she doesn't know is that the killer has already found out who she is and where she is hiding.

And now he's coming for her....

Loved it!

Firstly, I’m a big fan of Simon’s books. However, I found this one a little slow in places, partly the way the book is read by the female reader. It is worth persevering though because the other books in this series are amazing and this gives you the background you need for them to make sense!

Good Book, Bit slow at times but worth listening to / reading!

Fast and furious as we've come to expect from Simon Kernick. I enjoyed having three different narrators,still loved Paul Thornley the best though. Looking forward to the next one.

Another must read.

It was unusual to have 3 voice in the book and to be honest it took a bit of getting used to , but it was great.

A good story and well read, I am a Kernick fan, and this one didn't disappoint

Excellent listen
