Publisher's summary

There’s a killer on the streets, and no one is safe...

First there was the drowned man, but maybe his death was an accident?

Then there were the decapitated bodies, the burnt girl, the women pursued in the dark. Finally the police have to admit there’s a serial killer on the loose and he seems set on revenge. His name is Abel and his crimes are escalating every day.

Dan Flood, Olivia Jones and their two young children are a family at breaking point. The mundane juggle of parenting and work means that the romance is draining away. Living in a community that is growing ever more fearful, just adds to the pressure in their lives.

But when Abel turns his attention on Olivia, only Dan can save her...

Bestseller Ross Greenwood’s serial killer thriller is perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Ian Rankin and Peter Robinson.

This book was previously published as Abel’s Revenge.

Not DI Barton, but a good twisty story

The plot twists in Ross Greenwood’s books are always great. This one has a few of them (no spoilers). A lot of relatable stuff also — sometimes a bit of too-real cringe, and a number of laughs.

I listened to this during a few two hour drives and dog walks, and had quite a few times when I’d wait to finish a chapter before closing the app. A couple slower spots, but nothing that takes away from the story.

The narrator is great — same one used for the DI Barton and other books. Great voice, pace, and pronounced everything correctly (my biggest pet peeve with audiobooks!). Anyone who is a fan of the Barton series will enjoy this one.

Not as good as usual

Didn't care much for this although I usually love Ross Greenwood's books. I had the same narrator as the DI Barton novels made me think that the personable John Barton had developed an alternate personality.

Didn’t see that coming.

This book was awesome. It was both subtle and surprising how the characters developed and came together. Well done!

Kinda crazy

This was kind of a crazy story, but I couldn’t stop listening lol. I don’t usually like stories with romantic relationships because people are annoying, but it worked in a weird way.

Ridiculous

Complete waste of time. Utter nonsense …absolutely not worth beginning and certainly not worth finishing.

Disappointed

I was grieving after bingeing on the DI Barton series and was hoping his next book would be a continuation featuring his colleagues and family.

The story surrounding the uninteresting and unlikable characters in this book was irritating and I stopped listening. The marvelous narrator, David Thorpe, couldn't save this book for me. maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance anday try again in future. I do like this writer and will continue to explore his earlier books.

Too over the top for me...

I love everything Ross Greenwood has written so far, except this. It was so out there it was dumb. Even the narrator couldnt save it. Returning it today.
