Publisher's summary

She ruined their lives. Now they’re going to destroy hers.

"Someone is re-creating every traumatic point in your life. They are doing this to make you suffer, to make you hurt and the only possible end game can be death. Your death."

On the fourth floor of Chaucer House, two teenagers are found chained to a radiator. The boy is dead but the girl is alive. For Detective Kim Stone every detail of the scene mirrors her own terrifying experience with her brother Mikey, when they lived in the same tower block 30 years ago.

When the bodies of a middle-aged couple are discovered in a burnt-out car, Kim can’t ignore the chilling similarity to the deaths of Erica and Keith - the only loving parents Kim had ever known.

Faced with a killer who is re-creating traumatic events from her past, Kim must face the brutal truth that someone wants to hurt her in the worst way possible. Desperate to stay on the case, she is forced to work with profiler Alison Lowe, who has been called in to observe and monitor Kim’s behaviour.

Kim has spent years catching dangerous criminals and protecting the innocent. But with a killer firmly fixed on destroying Kim, can she solve this complex case and save her own life, or will she become the final victim?

The heart-stopping and totally addictive new crime thriller from multimillion-copy number one bestseller Angela Marsons will have you completely hooked.

Brilliant

Loved every minute of it! Will definitely find more from this author. My kind of story

Gut wrenching

This is such a good book. Completely gut wrenching and hard to read but a really good story.

Healing for Kim

Kim Stone is not a likable character, although the author helps readers and listeners understand her and so offers the chance for us outside the story to choose to develop empathy for her. In this addition to the series, Kim has to bare her story to those she has power over, her Team. In other volumes, it's only those with power over her and who are male who have this intimate knowledge. I'm curious how the author will move the arc forward if the series continues. I will have trouble accepting the Kim if she continues to act as if her past still was a secret to her peers and subordinates.

Another great addition

Angela Marsons has written another great addition to the series. It was full of all the action and twists we’ve come to enjoy. Jan Cramer gave a stellar performance as she brought it all to life. The only negative aspect was that it had to come to an end.

I love this series!

The narrator could not be more PERFECT in bringing out the spirit of this series that will get you hooked. Her rendition of Kim Stone makes Kim's acerbic nature truly endearing. On the flip side, the way she delivers the sweet, patronizing demeanor Kim bestows on her adversaries embodies all of the reasons they have to want her dead :)
I highly recommend this entire series.

Amazing

I absolutely loved it as I knew I would. Angela Marsons never disappoints. The Kim Stone series is awesome and I can not wait for the next book.

Shes outdone herself

this was so intriguing. i have to listen a second time to see if i can piece the clues together. i love this series becuase you thunk you know who has comiitednthe crime and your wrong till the last page.

Memories are never dead!

The story line was great and the narration was great as usual! After all this time, I still don’t understand Kim’s reluctance to share with her team. But I guess that would make it too easy for them to figure out what she’s up to!
I was intrigued with the plot at first, with so many possibilities for the “who dunn-it,” but was very disappointed with the actual “who dun-nit” and the reason behind it.
I love this series and at least this book leaves it wide open for a future sequel for another “someone” out to get Kim!

Fabulous, as ever!

Angela Marsons is one of best story tellers alive. When a new release of hers comes out I drop whatever I'm currently into and dig in.
Plus - Jan Cramer is far and away my favorite female narrator. I find myself considering there to be a roomful of people in the studio, and each one instantly recognizable. Thank you Jan for taking me on so many vivid adventures!

Brilliant as always!

Loved the story, the pace and the performance! Can’t wait for the next exciting installment!
