About this listen
Two young boys stumble on a dead prostitute. She's on Sean Denton's patch. As Doncaster's youngest community support officer, he's already way out of his depth, but soon he's uncovering more than he's supposed to know.
Meanwhile Karen Friedman, professional mother of two, learns her brother has disappeared. She desperately needs to know he's safe, but once she starts looking, she discovers unexpected things about her own needs and desires.
Played out against a gritty landscape on the edge of a Northern town, Karen and Sean risk losing all they hold precious.

Stick with it
I love John Keeble narrating. This had a very slow and confusing start but I stuck with it pretty obvious ending but a few twists.

Solid 4* if you like crime drama
I listened to this as part of a book club group. I wouldn't have usually opted for a crime drama like this, I feel they get a bit same-same and this one isn't an exception. There's a good cop, a bad cop, a bit of corruption, a dash of people trafficking and a sprinkle of marriage trouble at home. I felt the narration put me off a little too - he's usually very good but in this book his accents were off (Doncaster sounded more Liverpudlian at times) and when trying to build suspense he started shouting and getting louder. It was a bit off-putting.
Not exceptional, but if you like a crime drama, this has ticked all the boxes.

It was ok
I downloaded this after reading a review in the Yorkshire Post. I thought it would be good to read a book based aroung the area I live in. It was ok. I found it hard to engage with the characters and the story line was topical but not very exciting. Jonathon Keeble narrated it well.

A Delight with a Light Touch
I'm so glad that I decided to have a listen to a new author with Helen Cadbury's 'To Catch A Rabbit'. This was a police procedural from a fresh and refreshing angle. Our heroes are a humble PCSO who lives with his nan, a fast track SOCO excluded from the team and an admin worker at an immigration charity. With peripheral players at the centre of the action, the usual view of a detective thriller shifts - to very good effect. I did get a little lost with a change of time and place at one point - but I decided that was a good thing, I had to keep paying attention. I am very surprised at this being a first novel. There's a deft and confidence that seems very assured. I loved the light and sometimes almost whimsical tone that the story has - it's consistent through the whole book and helped me to feel submerged in the story. Jonathan Keeble did a sterling job at performing the wide range of characters. I'm going to give it a second listen, to see if the dream that one of the characters had makes any more sense - or if it was just the rabbit!

Fantastic
From beginning to end this story was gripping and beautifully written.
The narrator is incredible at giving tge characters identity with believable accents....except for the scouse one (sorry Jonathan). Each character he brings alive like no other narrator that I've listened to does. All who narrate books should listen to this chap and learn from his art.
The story has wonderful twists and turns throughout and without my revealing the plot it has an unsuspected ending.
Well worth buying and I'd highly recommend you listen to other books read by Jonathan Keeble.
10/10 from me for both Helen and Jonathan.

Good story- well told but.....
Overall I thought this was a well written, well told story. There were for me ( and this is just a personal opinion) one or two too many convenient coincidences and I am not a huge fan of stories being all wrapped up with a neat ending- life just isn't like that.
I was however drawn in and I did want to keep listening so if you want a good story this is for you.

Fine, not much more to say
Book was enjoyable enough to keep me listening during runs and dog walks. I liked the main characters. Unfortunately nothing special.
