About this listen
A spell-binding mystery, packed with suspense....
During the investigation into the death of a woman on a Liverpool housing estate, DI Tara Grogan encounters Callum, a local recluse who claims to have information.
But he won't help her unless she, in turn, helps him find out the truth about the suspicious death of his wife and child.
Tara is ready to dismiss his outlandish theories and ravings, until she discovers that, like her, he was a student at Latimer College, Oxford. A place which she has very much buried in the past.
Desperate to move forward in her case and curiosity piqued, Tara accepts, but as she delves deeper into the man's past, it becomes obvious he hasn't been honest with her.
And when another death is linked to Callum, Tara is confronted by the danger that her own demons have led her to trust the wrong person again.

Great story
Loved how the story developed slowly and we got to know the characters
Also enjoyed the random ‘NI sayings’ which popped out now and again
Narration could have been a bit more ‘energetic’

A good listen totally let down by the reader
I continued to listen although the narrator would be better employed reading Jane Austen or books where no accents are needed. A Liverpudlian "lout" or "Scally " as they say there would never have a a southern accent. I expect more from audible. I would like to listen to the next in the series as R McCracken writes a good story but don't think I can listen to the clipped tones again and as there is a lot of choice out there... If the author has any say in the matter I am sure he will gain more listens from a different reader

Intriguing read full of twists and turns
An easy listen with plenty of twists and turns. I found the characterisation of Tara as a strong, brave, fiercely intelligent and determined detective who would fall for a suspect slightly hard to believe, but an enjoyable listen nonetheless!

An interesting if slightly chaotic listen/read
Having listened to the book, I want back to the beginning and listened to the first chapter again. I think I am correct, the narrator improved with practice.
A slightly different plot and characters than normal, but it all got sa little silly in the last couple of chapters. I generally enjoyed it though.

Gripping Thriller
A complex read at times as the Author weaves his way through the multilayered story line. Explosive ending.

Couldn’t listen to this narration
I cannot say whether I like the story or not, because I just couldn’t listen past three chapters-the intonation of the narrator was dreadful and I had to stop.
