Reseñas de la Crítica

"Stunning." ( The Mail on Sunday)

"I absolutely loved it...This one is one of the best crime thrillers I've read in a long time, and that includes mainstream authors such as James Patterson!" (Fiona's Book Reviews)

"I don't think I've been so hooked by a new author since the discovery of Mark Edwards or Mark Billingham...if you finish a crime thriller feeling like you just need to have a lie-down and a cup of tea to get your breath back, then the writer has done their job. Angela Marsons, I still don't have my breath back." ( Reading Room with a View)

Excellent;

Sorry it wasn't longer. it ended far too quickly for me as I was thoroughly enjoying it. Having worked as a counsellor and in the field of mental health myself, it was a delightful surprise to find that this book was well researched. The concept of a sociopathic psychiatrist was delicious in a fictional story but, unfortunately not impossible in real life. So-called caring professionals who don't care are, sadly, not unusual. Fortunately​, homicidal ones are rare! At least, as far as I know.

My only criticism is that the narrator could slow down a bit so the listener has more time to savour the story and her great characterization. The Midland accents and different voices are really good.

Fantastic narration!

I enjoyed the performance as much as the story line. I look forward to the next book!

Psychological thriller

Any additional comments?

I found this police story be a very fascinating listen: plenty of challenges, some physical, some psychological, and some cognitive. Even though you know the guilty party, the action moves the reader along swiftly. The narrator was good, but I sometimes had trouble discerning whether I was listening to the perpetrator or the policewoman; they were both strong women who could be brash. I felt it would have been helpful if the narrator could have tried harder to make them sound different.

Great book #2

I enjoyed this continuing series of DCI Kim Stone. Ready to download #3!

Loved the narrator & story plot!

keeps you at the edge of your seat.

I didn't want to stop listening as I was afraid of missing something. anytime I had to stop listening I couldn't stop thinking about the book and keep trying to put pieces together.

Dark secrets

A little long and winding but pretty entertaining. Very detailed psychological information that bogs the story down a bit.

Spectacular

I enjoyed the narrator, and loved a book as if I were watching a movie I recommend to all

Love This Author

While I didn't love this as much as the first book, I was pleased with the story and the performance and will continue to read this author's books.
