Shadows of the Mind

DI Joseph Stone Crime Thrillers, Book 6

De: J.R. Sinclair

Narrado por: Patrick FitzSymons

Some mistakes never stay buried.

When DCI Simon Hart steps in front of a bus, it’s ruled a tragic accident. But as more deaths follow—each eerily similar—DI Joseph Stone begins to suspect something far more calculated is at work.

The trail leads back to a case Joseph thought he’d left behind. A wrongful conviction. A life destroyed. And a man who may have survived long enough to seek revenge.

As Joseph and DC Megan Anderson investigate, they uncover a disturbing pattern linking the victims to a charismatic hypnotist offering help to the vulnerable. But beneath the calm exterior lies a mind skilled in manipulation, control, and psychological games—and when Joseph discovers the man’s true identity, the case turns terrifyingly personal.

Plagued by guilt and haunted by the consequences of his past decisions, Joseph finds his grip on reality beginning to slip. With his judgement clouded, his allies unsure, and the killer always one step ahead, he is forced into a dangerous battle of minds where trust is a liability and certainty is an illusion.

To stop a murderer who knows exactly how to break him, Joseph may have to confront the darkest parts of himself—and risk losing everything in the process.

Narrated by Patrick FitzSymons, Shadows of the Mind is a tense, psychologically charged British crime thriller set in Oxford. Dark, unsettling, and relentlessly introspective, it is the gripping sixth instalment in the DI Joseph Stone series.

Ideal for listeners who enjoy psychological suspense, morally complex protagonists, and mind games where the truth is never quite what it seems.
