Paper Girls

DCI Kett Crime Thrillers, Book 1

De: Alex Smith

Narrado por: Tim Bruce

The one case he couldn't crack was the one that finally broke him.

Haunted by his inability to track down and save his missing wife, DCI Robert Kett leaves the Metropolitan Police behind and moves to Norwich with his three young children, hoping to heal their broken family.

But his newfound peace doesn’t last.

Two newspaper delivery girls have gone missing in the city, and the clues point to a serial kidnapper. Kett is dragged into the centre of one of the darkest cases of his career - a case that pits him head-to-head against a horrifying evil. And a case that might uncover the terrible truth of what happened to his wife.

Praise for the book:

"Terrifying and unputdownable, the first crime novel from million-selling author Alex Smith is officially 'a gripping debut'." (J.D. Kirk, author of DCI Logan crime thrillers)

About the author: Alex Smith wrote his first book when he was six. It wasn’t particularly good, but it did have some supernatural monsters in it. His latest book Paper Girls, the first DCI Robert Kett thriller, has monsters in it, too, although these monsters are very human, and all the more terrifying for it.

In between these two books, he has published 12 other novels for children and teenagers under his full name Alexander Gordon Smith, including the number one best-selling Escape from Furnace series, which is loved by millions of fans worldwide and which is soon to become a motion picture. He lives in Norwich with his wife and three young daughters.

the reader

i dislked the torture of children. it seemed gratuitous to get the point across of evil.

loved it

I have never read anything by Alex Smith. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish.

Brilliant Mystery Novel

it was a engaging suspenseful story. The characters were flushed out well. Keeps you on the edge.

Oooo I really Like It!

Great story line, the description about his girls are spot on & hilarious - I love his internal dialogue. Narrator is perfect! I could listen the him read me the whole series & I will! I couldn’t stop once I started - had to hear what happened next. Off to hear book two 🥰.

a new to me series worth a listen

the author has woven a tail with some interesting plot lines and some foreshadowing of things to come. it's a more modern contemporary story probably more realistic with the challenges of family life and policing I recommend alisson and enjoy the series I'm looking forward to book two
