Gripped me right from the off loved the story line loads to think about and guess at. Great listen loved to hear more from KC Wayland

There was the potential for a lot of atmosphere and energy to this series but it feels as if it wasn't quite realised some strange and sound mixing decisions. The set up is great buta you really need the characters to feel locked in, desparate and paranoid but it doesn't quite pull you in because the sound and music is so withdrawn, almost hidden under the dialogue.

This a great whodunnit otherwise, though there are too many flashback sequences in the early episodes which gets a little confusing unless your paying attention...




A really well set up, but slightly flawed, mystery

Totally gripping perfect for a rainy autumn weekend listening. I loved every minute of it and felt sad when it ended. cast and writing was superb.
