The Woman Downstairs

De: JD Kirk

Narrado por: Samara MacLaren, Sarah Barron, David Monteath

A completely addictive and unputdownable psychological thriller with a nail-biting twist

‘Hi,’ she says, ‘I’m your new neighbour.’ Her smile is bright but her shoulders are tense as she stands on the leafy green Edinburgh street. She seems friendly. But soon I’ll discover her dangerous secret…

On the first day I meet my new neighbour, we share a glass of wine and talk into the night. We swap numbers and I vow to get to know her better. But as I get closer to her, I discover something about her past that changes everything. She isn’t who I thought she was.

Then when I step into her home, my jaw drops. Everything in here is identical to my own flat – every cushion, every picture on the wall.

Except for the knife, covered in blood. My heart pounds in my chest. What has she done? What is she capable of?

I should never have come here. I should never have got close to her. I need to run.

But then I hear a creak outside the door. And I realise, it may be too late…

An absolutely gripping psychological thriller from multi-million-copy, bestselling author JD Kirk. For anyone who loves Freida McFadden, John Marrs and T.M. Logan.

My favorite yet

I’ve listened to all of JD Kirk’s books and have mostly enjoyed them all. This is by far and away the best book he’s written yet.

the woman Downstairs

the plot was very gripping but I didn't really care about the characters like I do in Kirk's detective series.

Great

Master of suspense and illusion. very innovative twist. can't wait for next one. hate the minimum word's required for submission

Disappointing

Had high hopes for this one, the pacing to begin with was good. But the story seemed to have dragged near the end, and fizzled out. After having listened to all his other books, feels like a let down for me.

Outstanding Narrators

Well written and well paced but not the best this author has produced. JD Kirk fans have been spoiled by his series DCI Jack Logan and subsequent spin-off series Hoon and Filson. Rich characters and perfect placement of humor that cut the tension in the riveting mysteries. Each series has been a joy ride. Great plot line in this book with dots of humor, but unfortunately the humorous bits do not land well and seem mis-matched with the characters. Still a very entertaining story with excellent narration. Looking forward to the next Filson, Hoon or Logan.
