Publisher's summary

A luxury resort. Three missing women. One body.

When young London professional Alex Evans is informed that his sister's body has been pulled from an icy lake in Northern Lapland, he assumes his irresponsible sister accidentally drowned. He travels to the wealthy winter resort where Vicky worked as a tour guide and meets Agatha Koskinen, the detective in charge. Agatha is a no-nonsense single mother of three who already thinks there's more to Vicky's case than meets the eye.

As the two form an unlikely alliance, Alex also begins to suspect the small town where his sister lived and died is harbouring secrets. It's not long before he learns that three other women have gone missing from the area in the past and that his sister may have left him a message.

On the surface, Koppe, Lapland is a winter wonderland. But in this remote, frozen place, death seems only ever a heartbeat away.

Fantastic story and narration

Jo Spain has quickly become one of my favorites. The dialogue and character interactions are so well done. Her protagonists are always very relatable in both their thoughts and behaviors. This is another story full of twists and turns and really left me guessing ‘til the end. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, as well as the usual fantastic performance by Jasmine Blackborow.

Excellent

This is very well written, with an intricate and engaging plot. The characters were well developed. The narrator's performance was outstanding. I really enjoyed it.

Waaay Too Long!

This 12-hour audiobook could have easily been a 6-hour book.

I loved Jo Spain's "The Confession" but this title did not meet my lofty expectations.

Narrator Jasmine Blackborow did a fabulous job with the narration but even a 5-star narrator could not save this book.

Incredibly dull

This just bored me so much. There's large parts where nothing happens. Hard to tell the did between some of the character. She doesn't give them distinctive voices. Wasted a credit
