About this listen

Two victimes with no pasts

A man is found stabbed to death on the Southampton morning commuter train.

But why can't Detective Sophie Allen's team find out anything about his history? And why was he staying in a house that seems to be owned by a government security unit?

Then there is another stabbing, this time in a refuge for abused women. And again, Sophie can find very little about the victim's life.

How does all this connect to desperate migrants arriving on the beaches?

The Dorset-based detective team discovers duplicity that reaches to the top echelons of government in this twisting tale of treachery, tragedy, and hope.

Discover a captivating crime mystery which will have you gripped from start to finish.

The story was spoiled by the narrator miss pronouncing place names and other commonly used words. It was a problem for me as it distracted the flow of the story and I found it very annoying. It was noticeable in a number of the previous stories but was more obvious and frequent in this one. Surely some editing could have been used!

Another excellent story from this first class author
