About this listen

Dedicated, intuitive and utterly obsessive, DCI James Langton is ruthless in his pursuit of a gang of illegal immigrants, killers of a young prostitute. When he is horrifically, almost fatally injured by one of them, it falls upon DI Anna Travis to put her own career on hold as she nurses him through his intense frustration and desperation to bring his would-be murderer to justice.

Then Anna is assigned to a different case, the brutal killing of a quiet, studious woman whose body was discovered by her daughter returning home from school. A senseless attack with no obvious motive or immediate suspect. Until, chillingly, the case becomes unexpectedly linked with Langton's and Anna finds herself under similar threat from those who almost destroyed his career and his life.

Short and sweet! Finished without conclusion. Characters were believable, really needed more to the story line.

This narration by Janet McTeer made the characters of the book far more enjoyable than the first two, where the voices are strained and lacking emotion. McTeer’s seamless move from male to female and the variety of different accents takes it to a whole new level. I’ve struggled to listen to the first two books in the Anna Travis series and not sure I can return to it having listened to Janet McTeer’s narration.
