About this listen

From award-winning writer J D Kirk comes a blockbuster thriller for fans of Lisa Jewell and Sarah A Denzil, performed by Louise Brealey, featuring David Tennant.

Just because he sounds real, doesn’t mean he is…

When Sarah’s husband, Nick, is killed in a car accident, her world shatters. Facing a future without him seems impossible.

But maybe she doesn't have to.

When Sarah discovers EternaTech, the AI program Nick and his business partner have been working on in secret, she is given the chance to speak to Nick from beyond the grave.

It sounds like him. It feels like him…

As Sarah becomes consumed by her connection to this digital Nick, she begins uncovering secrets about his final days. But as she digs deeper, the lines between what's real and what isn't blur, and Sarah must confront a chilling, terrible truth.

Some things may be best left buried.

Scary!

Well, this is very different to J D Kirk's usual police procedural books, but it is a fabulous thriller set in the world of AI and I listened to it in one day! The story pulled me in straight away and it was so tense it had me on the edge of my seat. I don't know much about AI but I found it all very scary. There are lots of twists and just as I thought I had it all figured out Mr Kirk turned everything on it's head leaving me reeling!

Kudos to the two narrators, Louise Brealey and the fabulous David Tennant.who brought the book to life.

Edge of your seat stuff

I loved this book the story dragged you in from the beginning. The narrators did a fabulous job. Parts had me so on edge I had to stop make a brew then go back to it. The twists and turns had me engaged all through right till the very end. Highly recommend keep it up J D Kirk, fabulous.

A Modern Horror story

I don't know what I was expecting from JD Kirk, but this was a real surprise. Something quite different.
The narrative moves along at a good pace with such a good idea that encapsulates all our fears about AI. A modern horror story but without the gore. There are some parts that are really moving and uncomfortable as well as being an exciting (occasionally horrifying) thriller. Loved it.

What a ride!

Absolutely loved this! The story kept me on the edge of my seat- loved the use of AI as the basis.

Had to stop a couple of times as I was so anxious but I couldn’t leave it for long as I needed to know what was going to happen and couldn’t leave the characters hanging!

All made even more perfect with the fabulous narration.

Menacing

Something very different from JD Kirk. The story of an AI app and software being created and being manipulated and abused is a very reality in this day and age.
Both characters are very believable in their roles, the story is fabulously strong with twists you don't see coming.
I have to admit at feeling the ending is somewhat anticlimactic after such a strong performance.
All in all a very strong thought provoking story from JD Kirk, a world away from Logan and Hoon, and therefore cannot be compared.
