About this listen

What is the link between the abduction of a little girl and a dead prostitute?

When the body of a prostitute is found, followed by the discovery of children locked in an attic, DI Gus McGuire is handed the case. But what at first appears to be a simple murder soon turns into an international manhunt for the members of a twisted child trafficking ring.

McGuire, who is suffering with his own emotional problems, must pick his way through the web of deceit and uncover the truth in time before the body count rises. Can McGuire identify The Matchmaker before it’s too late? And can he trust those he is working with?

Brilliantly narrated, l was engrossed from the beginning- from the very first page,

The characters came to life, although the content was gruesome, sad, and extremely disturbing - not for the weak-hearted. l guessed wrong but, looking back, the signs were there.

A real eye-opener, the author had clearly done her homework, and the narrator did it justice.

outstanding!!!!!!

The story was stark, troubling, dark and realistic.

I was shocked by this story line but could not stop listening. The characters are great and realistic. The narration perfect. I did not want it to end in one respect but wanted it to end in another. I enjoyed it so much I bought the next two books in the series!!!

My first 5 star review of 2019!!

How on earth did this series manage to evade me? The story has a very real feel and there are plenty of twists and turns and the odd red herring. The subject matter is quite dark, dealing with child trafficking and paedophilia and there are some shocking occurrences, but I didn’t find the book too graphic

I love books set in Yorkshire. I am from Leeds, just down the road from Bradford, and so I recognized lots of the places in the book. Liz does a great job of capturing the multicultural diverse nature of the city.

The characters in this book are amazing, especially the police team. Gus is a dreadlocked mixed race, middle class copper who returns to work after a horrific personal tragedy. His wife has left him for his sister and all he wants is to get back to work. He’s just the sort of bloke you’d want to be friends with. Then there’s the rest of the team, Alice Cooper, John Sampson, Sadia Hussain and Compo, who are all very well drawn and the banter between them helps to lighten the book.

The narration by Marston York was spot on and added to my enjoyment of the book.

It’s hard to believe this is a debut novel. It was a very difficult book to put down and I finished it just before 3am this morning. I will certainly be buying the rest of the series.

Excellent story and characters

This is a very good twisty-turny book with well drawn characters and a great plot. Hard topic that will probably make you want to kick something, but stick with it.

Tough read, but worth it
