About this listen

Don’t miss the new, devastatingly good thriller from Helen Fields, The Institution. Out now!

One for sorrow, two for joy
Edinburgh is gripped by the greatest terror it has ever known: a lone bomber is targeting victims across the city, and no one is safe.

Three for a girl, four for a boy
In their jobs, DCI Ava Turner and DI Luc Callanach deal with death every day. But when it becomes clear that every bomb is a trap designed to kill them too, the possibility of facing it themselves starts to feel all too real.

Five for silver, six for gold
With the body count rising daily and the bomber’s methods becoming ever more horrifying, Ava and Luc must race to find out who is behind the attacks – or pay the ultimate price…

Seven for a secret never to be told…

With twists and turns you’ll never see coming, prepare to be gripped by this devastatingly good thriller. Perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride and MJ Arlidge.

Critic reviews

FURTHER PRAISE FOR ONE FOR SORROW:

‘An emotionally charged and superbly gripping thriller that kept me turning those page until the early hours! Masterly plotted, not to be missed.’ Jane Isaac, author of An Unfamiliar Murder

‘Grabs you at page one and holds on like a police dog tackling a suspect. Sometimes shocking, often gruesome, always gripping. Ten for thrills!’ – Douglas Skelton, author of The Blood is Still

‘Dark, intense, explosive’ – Morgan Cry

‘An incredible, heartbreaking, terror-filled, pulse-in-throat thriller. So brilliantly plotted, clever, slick and so, so dark.’ – Bestselling author Cressida McLaughlin

If you've listened to the previous books in the Ava Turner series you will love this one, it's the best yet, and you'll be excited by what might happen next.
We get to meet the forensic profiler Dr Connie Woolwine, a great character.
Hopefully, we won't have to wait for too long for the next Ava rollercoaster ride.

Excellent

My favourite of this series so far. I was listening whilst shopping and actually stopped and gasped at one point

Outstanding

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The stalking of Quinn and her inability to stop the harassment even with the help of family made me feel quite emotionally involved. The subsequent attempts to track down the bomber were the more usual police procedure narrative. The cliff-hanger ending was unexpected -indicating another book to come? The narrator was brilliant as usual, effortlessly switching between male and female voices.

Heart-wrenching story of stalking and revenge
