About this listen

Emmy and her little sister Dani are sleeping in their bedroom upstairs. Their parents are in the kitchen. A knife is jammed to their mother’s throat. Their father has a stack of kitchen plates balanced on his back.

The intruder rasps, ‘Don’t be breathing too hard now. I reckon smashing plates is the sort of noise that’ll wake a child. Have them coming down to see what’s going on. There can’t be witnesses ...’ What Detective Maddie Ives will find in that nice family kitchen will horrify even this most hardened cop. And she knows the victim ...

Twists and turns of the story line. Some elements were a little distressing/sad. Need to keep your wits about you at times

Everything you expect from a Maddie Ives story with added. Kept me up at night not being able to stop listening. Had me laughing out loud and crying like a fool.
Heed the warning on the graphic violence, it is hard to listen to at times but harder to stop.
Full of twists and turns that you don't see coming.
Some parts are awful and I really did not enjoy where the story went but that's because it was so well written, I think the author wanted the reader to feel the way I did while reading it. This book will stay with me a long time.

Fantastic and awful

a brilliant last in the series (so far?) book. full of twists, surprises, shocks, tears and humour. the characters are full and alive and the team loyalty is deep.
