Exciting From Beginning Until the End

This is definitely one of the better ones in the series. It is full of excitement from the beginning and continues with great adrenaline paced turns all the way through. I’m sad it’s over. As always, there is physiological intrigue thrown in with the suspense. This book includes a nice amount of Tom Douglas and his family. I highly recommend this one!

Pretty Good

The story plot is overall good. It does get quite confusing at times. There are characters introduced that somehow do not seem to tie to the central plot. I had to rewind several times to figure out who was who. I did not like the ending at all. It left me frustrated with the main characters. Ending was not satisfying.

Very Good!

Loved it. Even though I was confused through some of it because I started the series with this book. Definitely going to listen to the first book in the series next. The narration was great and the story kept me guessing. Definitely recommend!

Good addition to the series

This is the latest story in the DCI Tom Douglas series and tells the story of police knocking on Jo Palmer’s door and arresting her pediatric surgeon husband Ash. Shortly thereafter Child Protective Services show up and insist on taking Jo’s but not Ash’s biological child with them. Neither the arresting officers nor CPS are who they say they are and thus evolves the attempts by the Police and Jo to find both her husband and child.
I found it hard to believe that Jo would not insist on accompanying her child but appreciated her later efforts and determination to get her daughter back. I also liked the realistic character of Ash who commits adultery and the ending which is realistic rather than an all-round happy ending. 4 stars.

Lisa Coleman was excellent with the delivery of the story

Jo is relatable from the start!

This was quite the lively story! I enjoy Tom and Becky so very much as characters. I have been reading or listening to Rachel Abbott for years now and I always enjoy her books. She packs in some action with a twisted and thrilling situation with personal lives and how these characters progress over time. The narrator Lisa Coleman has a pleasant voice. I’m not sure if she adds to the thrilling feel of the story or if the story is that thrilling, either way. I liked it!
