Summary

The narrative is a confession to the murder of an unnamed person who, it is alleged, was a total stranger to the perpetrator. The glory-seeking author claims to have committed an undetectable crime, but are they telling the truth? The story line leaves little doubt that the homicide portrayed could have actually occurred. 

An intriguing question is put to the listener: “Is a confession a confession if it is impossible to identify its author?” Who is this storyteller, who delights in toying with the listener? The murderer wants fame, but not at any cost. Once convinced that the law has not been able to bring them to justice, the narrator details how they will achieve public acclaim without ever having their name known. How this paradox will be accomplished will surprise. Content suitable for 18 plus.

First Class!

This book keeps you listening and intrigued and manages to draw you in to the mind and thoughts of the narrator. Very compelling storyline which makes you wonder what will be revealed next. As a newbie to audiobooks, I wasn't sure what to expect but am more than satisfied with my experience. Looking forward to hearing more from both this author and narrator

Thought provoking

As someone who frequently reads crime stories I really enjoyed listening to this. There’s a great deal of detail around the murder so you get a vivid mental picture of what is happening, even down to the environment the scenes are set in. There’s a lot of wicked humour in there which made it especially fun to listen to. I’d recommend to those who also enjoy crime stories and also those who like thought provoking reads.

What a book looking forward to book 2 .

This was a different type of story for me with main character explaining how he had set up the perfect murder. which I enjoyed listening to from start to finish.
