Exasperating

I was so frustrated listening to this book. The main character, Bailey (not a good choice of name when wanting not to be remembered), is supposed to be an experienced, professional undercover agent but the story falls well short of that. She actually comes across as an amateurish officer who despite the sever danger to her own life and those around her, makes a number of ridiculous errors and decisions throughout the story. Who, for example, in the midst of a very dangerous undercover operation, would even consider meeting up with her friend "to have a chat and a good meal", leaving herself open to easy detection by a very experienced killer? This is just one of the many circumstances in the story that make it so frustrating and unbelievable. The first book in the series, Jail Bird, was probably the best since, being based in a jail, Bailey was unable to make as many ridiculous decisions.

Insults the reader’s intelligence

Incredibly signposted, drawn out and lacking nuance.
At times, it felt like listening to a dictionary as the explanations for certain aspects were unnecessary.
Also, from a performance perspective, I felt it lacked suspense and much of the non-dialogue was delivered in a manner that did not engage.

Another fab installment

I've really been enjoying this series. I loved it as a standalone story but would have liked to have seen more of a link up between the previous two novels as there were some really interesting characters who we need to see again.

I hope Bailey Morgan returns soon and we see a tying up of the story archs from before

Easy to stop and start and still follow the storyline

Really enjoyed this book

Bought this one after listening to another of Caro’s book with same police officer Bailey Morgan and wasn’t disappointed
Great book great ending

Brilliant

Absolutely Brilliant. Great follow on from the 1st 2 books. Hooked from the beginning.

Masterpiece No 3

Yet again Caro Savage delivers another addictive and most imaginative thriller. The story line and character twists are just top notch.
Genevieve Swallow narrates the book so well, bringing the characters to life.
Another brilliant masterpiece that has to be a movie.

Can’t wait for her next novel?
