Summary
In southeast London, a young mother has been accused of an unthinkable crime: poisoning her own child - and then leaving him to die. The mother, Ellie, is secretive and challenging - she's had a troubled upbringing - but does that mean she's capable of murder?
Balancing the case with raising her disabled five-year-old son, criminal defence lawyer Sarah Kellerman sets out in desperate pursuit of the truth. But when her own child becomes unwell, Sarah realises she's been drawn into a dangerous game.
Unsettling and compulsive, In the Blood is a chilling study of class, motherhood and power from a new star in crime fiction.

Amazing narrator.
Really enjoyed listening to this book and pleasantly surprised by the quality of the narrator, I could hardly believe it was one person reading throughout. They Really brought the characters alive! Typically, in the audiobooks included within the membership the narration can be very poor-this was the polar opposite. Not the normal type of book I would listen but was gripping all the way through to the point I wanted to be able to skip to the end to know what was going to happen!

Gripping
I wouldn’t normally choose this kind of book but was in a hurry to find something to listen to. It drew me in almost immediately and I couldn’t stop listening.
The narrator was excellent and brought characters to life wonderfully. Minor criticism is that some characters were transparent from the off (don’t want to name them as spoilers!). However I’d recommend this to anyone in search of an enjoyable story.

A first for me
This was basically a courtroom drama, but the subject, being a baby's mother being accused of his attempted murder meant it got me hooked from the first chapter. It stayed a great listen throughout and was definitely worth a read.

Fantastic!
The first book I have read in years, and first experience of an Audio book. I was hooked! So many unexpected twists. I couldn’t wait to have time to listen each day.
So refreshing to hear a storyline inclusive of disability.
Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommended.

you can't judge a book by its cover
The people you expect to hurt children aren't always the loud, rough ones or the whore. This book kept me guessing who the liars were all the way through. Ending in a most unexpected fashion.

Brilliant story and narration
The twists and turns of the story are so good, I was compelled to listen to it in one go. And last but not least I found the narration brilliant, it gives you the impression to really feel the emotions of the protagonists. This is quite rare to have such a good narration, well done !
