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.

Wonderfully thrilling

The story itself was fantastic, but unfortunately, the ending was predictable, which is why I did not give it five stars

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!

I really enjoyed this book! It is the second book in the series and it did not disappoint! I highly recommend reading this novel!

Good read!

Kim is a very interesting protagonist. I want to know more about her. Can't wait for the next installment.

Great plot

Thoroughly enjoyed this book, as much as the 1st one. Hope author follows through soon with book 3. Highly recommended.

Excellent story! Wonderful narrator!

The story was fantastic and intense in some parts. Jan Cramer brings the characters to life in a way that is believable and engaging.
