About this listen

Take a breath. Pray it’s not your last.Just a few months after a terrifying case that nearly took her life, Detective Lucy Harwin is back with her squad in the coastal town of Brooklyn Bay – and this time, she’s faced with a case more horrifying than anything she’s encountered.

Along with her partner, Detective Mattie Jackson, Lucy is investigating what appears to be a vicious but isolated murder; a woman found bludgeoned to death on a lonely patch of wasteland. But when a second victim is discovered strangled in an alleyway, then a young family shot in their own home, Lucy and the team must face the unthinkable reality--a killer is walking the streets of their town.

While Lucy and the team try to find the link between these seemingly unconnected murders, they uncover a disturbing truth--these murders are replicating those carried out by infamous serial killers. Lucy must get to the killer before he strikes again. But he’s got his sights on her, and is getting ever closer… Can she save herself, before she becomes the final piece in his twisted game?

Exciting and fast paced!

I loved this book actually, it kept me on tenderhooks throughout. Thinking it through, the characters could of been developed further but I would still award 5 Stars.

Brilliant

Another fantastic read. Lucy, the main character is gutsy, loveable and tough. The twist at the end was very well thought out. I have read every book by this author, and they are all riveting. The narrator Alison Campbell, is very good relaying the characters extremely well. Can't wait for the next book.

Overly dramatic reading

Reader tries to add drama when it’s unnecessary. It’s annoying that everyday statements are said with breathless excitement.
Also, her constant emphasis on the wrong words is distracting cos you have to rewind and re-say it in your head properly - ‘He said it was HIS fault’ means something different to ‘He said it was his fault.’

Not the best

Bit of a weak story and the narrator sounds like she's reading a fairy tale
