When You Are Mine

A Novel

De: Michael Robotham

Narrado por: Katy Sobey

From an author who Stephen King calls “an absolute master” comes a “heart-clutching psychological thriller” (People) about a young female police officer facing danger on all fronts—from a clever victim of abuse, skeptical colleagues on the force, and even her own father.

Philomena McCarthy is an ambitious police officer with the elite Metropolitan Police in London, responding to a domestic violence call. Tempe Brown is a bloodied young woman and the mistress of a decorated and intimidating London detective, Darren Goodall. Philomena and Tempe strike up a tentative friendship, determined to protect each other from Goodall, but something isn’t quite right about the stories Tempe tells and the secrets she keeps. Yet the young officer is drawn into Tempe’s world, unsure of what is real or invented. After a bungled break-in and an unsolved murder, Philomena finds herself trapped—with her career, her impending wedding, and her very survival in doubt.

Robotham’s brilliant ability to render complex characters, both good and bad, keeps readers unsure of whom to trust, “maintain[ing] an air of excruciating suspense” (The Washington Post)—until the very last page.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sobey portrays Phil with equal parts pathos and ambition. She varies accents, which makes the secondary characters sound distinct and compelling. Humorous moments crackle with life, while violent confrontations simmer with tension. Sobey's performance elevates the story’s suspense and memorable lead character."

Great stand alone novel

There’s a lot of twists beginning with how many crucial characters are involved. I couldn’t quit listening. Often I found myself yelling at the heroine to do something else- so I have a hard time finding fault with this work.

The title was good and caught my eye

Liked all of it especially the ending and I liked the characters . I wanted to know more about the dad’s involvement

Michael Robotham never disappoints

Michael Robotham is such a consistent author. He has a way of pulling you in the story with all the twist and turns.

Worth ever my penny

Michael Robotham is an excellent author. Every book I’ve read has been better than the last. This one is no exception. The character development makes you feel like you’ve known them for years. And you’re dying to know what happens. Cannot recommend this book and this author enough.

Very Good

Another good book by Mr. Robothem. Nicely written, good narrator and easy to follow. I recommend for mystery followers.
