Disappointed
Unbelievable, predictable and very drawn out. Seen to take an eternity to reach any conclusion. Not his best work

Really good story
I do like Michael Wood's stories and I think this is up there as one of my favourites. It has some strong and interesting characters and moves at a good pace. I couldn't stop listening and didn't want it to end! I also liked the cheeky reference to the "prolific serial killer Stuart Mills." Initially I was wary of the serial killer dad element as it's been done before but here I feel it was used in a different way and was, of course, essential to the plot. I have given the narration just 4 stars as despite thinking the narrator did an excellent job, there were quite a few unnecessary and possibly inadvertent, pauses which interfered with the pace of the narrative. But that's just me being very picky! I actually think this narrator would also have been a good match for the Matilda Dark series, as I think Stephanie Beattie's narration, while beautifully done, ages the character a bit. Anyway, back to this story- I can't wait for the next!

what a waste of a credit
I have enjoyed many Michael Wood books but this was nonsense. The main character is supposed to be intelligent and yet she makes so many idiotic decisions. She's a victim and keeps her home like a fortress yet she let's in strangers,never checks her security cameras and dismisses missing keys!! The story is full of inconsistencies,what happened with the scissors her murderer of a father took,he threatened a prison guard and nothing happens. The narrator sounds bored, you can hear her swallow between lines,there is continuous crackling in yhe background. Don't waste you time or money on this .So disappointing.

What a rollercoater ride!
I really enjoy Michael Wood's writing, especially his DI Matilda Darke series, so obviously pre-ordered this first book in a new series starring Dr Olivia Winter, a forensic psychologist.. I have to say I was not disappointed!
This is a proper page turner (or whatever t he audiobook equivalent of that is!) and kept me listening when I really should have been sleeping! This book is tense and never lets up. It's tightly plotted and very twisty. The characters and their interactions are interesting and I look forward to getting to know Olivia and DI Foley more in future books. Oh, and not forgetting Stanley the dachshund who is adorable!
Great narration by Olivia Mace.
