Summary

After breaking a case in Cornwall where he had been recuperating after a terrorist attack, DCI Grant threw himself into undercover work, until a mistake cost him the case and his contact her life.

Thrown a career lifeline, he is posted to Cornwall, and expects his life of dangerous undercover work to be replaced by monotony and a backlog of cases more suited to a junior detective. But when a young girl goes missing, Grant investigates a crime that seems not only impossible to solve, but utterly unthinkable.

Excellent narration and pacy story

Really enjoyable police detective story. A nice mix of detection work and element of danger throughout.

Taken

I loved the narration of Joe Mills, who brings out the mystery and action. Perfect.

This book is action packed. DCI Grant is posted to Cornwall after recuperating after a terrorist attack. He is hoping his dangerous undercover work will be replaced by a backlog of cases more suited to a junior detective. When a young girl goes missing Grant finds himself investigating a crime that is utterly unthinkable.

Great listen a new favourite series

This has the required twists and turns the two plots nicely dovetailed. It was an addictive listen, the narration really worked and added to the story. I just had to complete listening to get to the end but then I was bereft when it was over. Loved the ending set it up right for the next book.

Great story, really well told

I loved this book. It surprised me and kept my attention all the way through. The story deals with difficult subjects in a careful way so as to tell the tale fully without being offensive or salacious.
For me, what made the book stand out was the narration. The narrator did a great job on accents, voices, and all the drama you could want from one story. Superb storytelling all around
