Girl 4

De: Will Carver

Narrado por: Nicki Paull, Richard Aspel

Detective Inspector January David has always put his professional before his private life, but the two worlds are about to clash horrifically as he visits his latest crime scene.

But Girl 4 is different: she is alive - barely. And January recognises her...

Reseñas de la Crítica

There is a vivid - almost cinematic - quality to the writing. It is intense and makes for uncomfortable yet compulsive reading

Will Carver's debut crime thriller centres around Detective Inspector January David's efforts to catch a serial killer. A tense and often gory read, this will have readers trying to guess who the killer is from page one

This writer will go from strength to strength and I believe we will be hearing a lot more from Mr. Carver.

Brilliant debut, highly imaginative and so compelling

The book layout is completely different to anything I've read before. Will's characters are the killer, the victims and the police. What makes it so good is that every one of them is written in first person. That's no mean feat as a writer.

Poorly written version of Gone Girl

While I was enthralled by this book at times, especially with the wonderfully performed narration. Overall, this book has no flow to it. At times the supernatural and mystery genres just collided and never commingled. Although it is cliche to say the storyline did very much remind me of Gone Girl, but bc of the storyline going everywhere I never seemed to be into it.

Original story, good listen

Good listen for the beach or car medium suspension of reality, some good twists that kept it from being at all predictable.

Fantastic listen! Finished it in one sitting!

Would you listen to Girl 4 again? Why?

Yes, very original handling of an old genre.

Have you listened to any of Nicki Paull and Richard Aspel ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Nicki's reading is marvelous. Richard's nasal tone is just short of annoying and makes all his "characters" sound much the same, but listenable.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Loved, loved,LOVED the ending!!!!

Any additional comments?

Can't wait for his next!

Excellent listen

Interesting and unsuspected plot and finale. Characters believable especially, January Davis. could not have anticipated ending until the final chapters
