The Working Girls Book 1

By: Heather Burnside

Narrated by: Chloe Massey

Book one in the shocking and brilliant Working Girls series from the queen of urban crime.

When respected journalist, Maddy, goes to interview prostitutes in a rundown Manchester pub, she doesn't reckon on attracting the attention of their ruthless pimp, Gilly. He quickly decides to use Maddy for his own gains; he just needs to work out how. In the weeks that follow, Maddy is oblivious to Gilly's growing obsession with her, particularly when she begins a romance with successful businessman, Aaron. Their passionate love affair starts to dominate her life, and she finds herself losing control and alienating the people around her. As Maddy's safe and successful life starts to crumble around her, she must quickly work out who has it in for her, before it's too late...

Perfect for all fans of Kimberley Chambers and Martina Cole.

How we (women) yearn to be and feel loved

Did not like narrator's taking a heavy breath so loudly. Preferably use man for male narrative.

Would have listened non stop but life...

Great twisty crime thriller. Liked the way the author led you one way then dropped some little shockers. The narrotor was perfect for this book but increase the speed

Great story

Not a heavy story line, easy listen. Still kept me interested the whole way, with a twist or two.

Victim mentality

So the woman who caused all of the problems and invited evil into her house at the end gets looked at as a victim and a strong woman who comes out victorious. She should’ve had her kid taken away from her and lose all parental rights.
