About this listen

How many bad men can one woman have in her life?

1979. Leading businesswoman Rebecca is struggling to build healthy relationships. Her on off partner is a philandering police officer, part of the team chasing the Yorkshire Ripper who’s striking terror across the county.

Then Rebecca meets Larry, the charming American, with a troubled past.

And then of course there’s Mervyn, the creepy journalist who’s desperate for a girlfriend and willing to do anything to keep her in his life.

With three very different men craving her attention, and a serial killer on the loose, Rebecca finds herself in a twisted game of cat and mouse.

Quite a good yarn, spoiled by the at times, dreadful narration. The Yorkshire accent was totally off and sounded more like a cross between Lancashire and North East. We don't miss the 't's' in better, just one example. A lot of mispronounced words and weird staccato for the main characters. The American accents were better.
The story includes quite a few Americanisms. We certainly didn't go to the 'movies' in the 70s, we went to the 'pictures' (and still do).
If you're thinking of giving this one a go, I recommend reading it yourself rather than listening.
