Publisher's summary

Their job is to investigate crime - not become the victims... A killer is terrorising London but this time the police are the targets. Urgently re-assigned to investigate a series of brutal attacks on fellow officers, Maeve Kerrigan and her boss Josh Derwent have little idea what motivates the killer's fury against the force. But they know it will only be a matter of time before the killer strikes again.

My new Favorite Series!

I've enjoyed listening to this series there are enough twists and turns to keep you entertained while multitasking. Its a light weight police procedural thriller mystery that has engaging characters. You'll find several famialr office politic personalities that you'll be able to relate to. Over all a very enjoyable listen - I stumbled into the series midway through so I have not listened to them in order. This has not taken away from my enjoyment of the series.

Another great book in the series

I love getting frustrated with Maeve's need to be independent. She's already independent and what it really is for her is stubbornness and insecurity. She's a great character and she grows up a little more with each book

Back to Business!

I loved this installment. The banter between our heroes is back! Real detective work, some personal evolution, and a clutching story makes this a great listen. I am truly a fan of the series and have become attached to Maeve & Josh.

Another Great Addition to this Series!

Would you listen to The Kill again? Why?

Probably not, but that's just because I rarely listen to books twice, particularly mysteries. I definitely thought it was a gripping book.

What did you like best about this story?

I like the way the characters develop and how their relationships evolve.

Which character – as performed by Sarah Coomes – was your favorite?

Derwent is probably my favorite.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, but I listened to it fairly quickly, it was that absorbing.

It's been a while since I liked a book this much!

If five stars is the best I can give, this book gets six! The next in the series has a lot to live up to!

Loved it

This is the 2nd book I've read in this series and I really liked it. I loved the flawed characters and the story. Flawless narration.

Love the story BUT

Maybe it's me but the player would stop and skip a few seconds every once in awhile. With the awesome story line, the skips drove me crazy!

Maeve goes to hardship school

Although this was not my favorite I still adore the Maeve. Some tense emotional moments add to the narrative of the entire story. When police are being murdered it’s hard to watch. The secondary mystery was a pleasure to watch get solved. Long live The Maeve
