About this listen

The first in an intelligent, multi-layered crime series featuring DI Eva Harris.

A vicious killer on the loose, a traitor on the team - and a past that’s catching up with her.

Can DI Harris see the truth before it’s too late?

An expert killer who takes his victims’ eyes - can DI Harris see clearly enough to uncover the truth?

On the first day of her new job, Harris is called to the scene of a brutal murder at the heart of Surrey society. A shocking crime, with a meticulous killer: the victim’s eyes have been removed and the body drained of blood, with no forensic evidence left at the scene.

Her boss insists it must be the return of a killer who escaped justice several years ago, leaving a trail of bloody ritualistic killings. Harris isn’t so sure: both sets of victims have had their eyes removed, but other details are significantly different.

But Harris’s desperate desire to uncover the truth is complicated by her secret mission to find corruption at the heart of the police. Who can she trust in her own team? Harris is also hiding a secret past of her own - can she find the killer and learn who to depend on, before her dark history catches up with her?

Too much swearing

good story but there is far too much swearing for my liking and that's why I returned it. The narrator seems to have only one tone of voice doesn't fluctuate to match the scene or the moods of the characters but minus this would of been a really good listen

Great read

The story plays out with pace, with subplots drip fed throughout. Well read by Louise. A good read.

monotone narration

I did not mind the story, however the narrator's tone was flat and monotone, very off putting even at higher playback speed

Potentially good story

It was like listening to someone reading aloud in class. The storyline was ok though

Ok

I found this difficult to get in to. I was concentrating too much on the narration. I know this sounds ridiculous but it was like the narrator was just reading aloud! Without inflections and feelings. I’m not certain whether that changed or I got used to it but I’m listening to the second one now so it must be ok.

gripping and gutsy

there are many layers to this book which make gripping and gutsy. It takes a whe to warm to the narrator but don't let that detract from the book

Excellent book, well narrated

I really enjoyed this book. Yes, it has some graphic description and swearing, but I didn’t find any of it gratuitous or excessive, for me it added to the drama. The storyline was engaging throughout, and I liked the narrator and would choose books read by her in future.
