About this listen

When Nigel Baxter, a middle-aged married banker with an unremarkable past, is found dead in the bath of a plush hotel suite, his wrists slit, it looks as if he's taken his own life. At first. But when Detective Inspector Daniel Riley is assigned to the case, he soon realises all isn't as it first appears to be. When a postmortem shows Baxter was poisoned, Riley suspects foul play. And then there's the odd addition of a teddy bear left at the crime scene....

Struggling to come to terms with the loss of his fiancée, Rachel, in a freak motorcycle accident and the baby she was carrying inside her, Riley throws himself into the case in a bid to distract himself from his grief. And his infamous intuition is telling him something is off, really off on this one. With the help of his dedicated team, Riley begins to delve into Baxter's life and soon realises that the amenable family man has been indulging in the 'services' of some dubious websites, ones where young women hook up with older men in return for 'favours', and there's one woman in particular he'd like to speak to. A woman calling herself Goldilocks....

well written

This book was very well written, for it tackled a lot of issues within our society today. it was also strange for me knowing whose the murder at the beginning of the book. However I enjoyed listening to the story it was very gripping. The narrator was very good, he made the characters more believable. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

Great

Very Good storyline, was a bit slow in places, but had a lot of suspence and twist that came together with such high hopes for all.

Brilliant Story.

Although I found the main character to be lacking in personality the story was so good I could put this book down.
On several occasions I was on the edge of my seat. Brilliant!
