Summary

When Kate and Nathan receive a photo of four kidnapped models, the clock starts ticking for the detectives to save their lives before it’s too late.

Kate has been on the Murder Team for a few months now, working run-of-the-mill cases with Nathan. But the memory of that first case, and it's disturbing details, still bothers her.

Meanwhile, four models arrive at a shoot in a local abandoned mental asylum and are violently kidnapped.

The next day, a photo of them lands on the desk of Kate and Nathan, with a chilling note.

Fearing their imminent murders, the detectives begin the hunt for the missing models, delving into the photography community within Surrey, and the complex, fractious relationships between the photographers and models.

As the hours pass, evil influences raise their heads once more, and the pressure to save as many of the girls as possible grows.

But when links to Kates first case on the Murder Team become apparent, she begin's to wonder if there really is more going on here than meets the eye.

Another great listen

This was another story and narration which gripped me, the banter was brilliant. This was the sort of audible book that I just can get involved with. The story itself is very grizzly and captures the spirit of urban explorers.

The narrator embodies character including into the male voices and you can really get lost in the story.

There is a lot of hints re the back story, which the prequel really helps with, so looking forward to a show down soon.

I was given a free copy by the narrator but the review is entirely my own.

Chilling & thrilling


Another excellent story with Kate & Nathan who have a wonderful rapport and plenty of playful banter that works well and made me smile. There are some rather gruesome deaths and more hints at Kate's past (for those who haven't read the prequel). Lots of action and plenty going on to keep the reader/listener entertained from start to finish.

The narrator brings the characters to life and is a pleasure to listen to.


I received a free copy of this audiobook at my request and am voluntarily writing an honest and unbiased review.
