When You Are Mine

A Novel

De: Michael Robotham

Narrado por: Katy Sobey

From an author who Stephen King calls “an absolute master” comes a “heart-clutching psychological thriller” (People) about a young female police officer facing danger on all fronts—from a clever victim of abuse, skeptical colleagues on the force, and even her own father.

Philomena McCarthy is an ambitious police officer with the elite Metropolitan Police in London, responding to a domestic violence call. Tempe Brown is a bloodied young woman and the mistress of a decorated and intimidating London detective, Darren Goodall. Philomena and Tempe strike up a tentative friendship, determined to protect each other from Goodall, but something isn’t quite right about the stories Tempe tells and the secrets she keeps. Yet the young officer is drawn into Tempe’s world, unsure of what is real or invented. After a bungled break-in and an unsolved murder, Philomena finds herself trapped—with her career, her impending wedding, and her very survival in doubt.

Robotham’s brilliant ability to render complex characters, both good and bad, keeps readers unsure of whom to trust, “maintain[ing] an air of excruciating suspense” (The Washington Post)—until the very last page.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sobey portrays Phil with equal parts pathos and ambition. She varies accents, which makes the secondary characters sound distinct and compelling. Humorous moments crackle with life, while violent confrontations simmer with tension. Sobey's performance elevates the story’s suspense and memorable lead character." (AudioFile Magazine)

Thought I figured it out …. I was wrong.

I don’t understand some of the negative reviews. The ending was great. Loved the narration!

Ok!

Imo, not really worth the credit. I COULD put it down. Narration was spot on, story was just OK. That's about all I can say to describe it.....Eh 🤷‍♀️

Excellent

Another great novel from this author! I just love his writing and have really enjoyed everything by him.

Robotham does it again

This is at least the eighth book of the author I have read. I love his story construction. Mystery is an art form he has mastered.

Great story!

Narration terrific! Storyline engaging with some unexpected twists and leaves interest for the next installment. Highly recommend, as with all Robotham books! Read them all!

Cliché

This book has a decent plot line but it becomes predictable and annoying, as the main character seems unbelievably blind to the obvious. I’m all for a strong female protagonist, but at least give her a brain! Then, as usual, the police are the bad guys. Every book published now has any type of authority figure, whether it’s a teacher, parent or police officer, be the villain. Enough already.

brilliant impeccably crafted!

this is one of those books that when it's done you could turn back to page one and start all over again. the narration was perfect the storyline full of suspense excellent job bravo for Michael Robotham!

Great book

I thought the book was great for the mystery that it was kept me interested could not know who the killer was and until the end of cost which was a surprise

Very Good

Another good book by Mr. Robothem. Nicely written, good narrator and easy to follow. I recommend for mystery followers.

Terrific listen!

Didn’t want When You Are Mine to end - such a terrific listen!!! Totally loved it!
