Summary
Fifty years. Two deaths. One detective to solve an impossible case...
DI Jan Talantire is called to a cottage in Ilfracombe, where the female occupant is found dead, impaled with a crucifix. The woman, who had been renting the house for a few months, is well known locally, but the documents at the house indicate her real name is Ruth Lyle. The name means nothing to the young PC who found her, DI Talantire knows this cannot be the body of Ruth Lyle.
Because fifty years earlier, sixteen-year-old Ruth Lyle was murdered—stabbed by a crucifix, in exactly the same location. It is impossible for this to be the same Ruth Lyle, and yet the records are a match. DI Talantire must solve the ultimate riddle: how can a woman die twice?
A twisty and binge-worthy crime thriller. Perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths and Kate Ellis.

Wait! What Just Happened?!
What are crazy amazing and grossing story? There was so many plot twist you would get whiplash from having your head snapped from this way to that. There are lots of leaps that you have to take but the story is really worth the time and energy for a good listen!

Pretty good.
The story was pretty good and look forward to the next one and the narrator was very good, the Devon accents were there but didn’t make the characters sound like country bumpkins, which many narrators do.

Good story but let down a bit by the narration.
Really enjoyed the storyline but found the narrators attempts at different accents irritating and at times of putting and I live in the part of the world that this story was set! it was a good enough plot to have kept interest just being read normally.

Less would be better
An excellent plot. some lovely asides but somewhere it went off track too often or things explained with more words than needed. I would have enjoyed it more if it had been at least 1hr less

This was Excellent! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I do love all the layers and red herrings that are in a Nick Louth book! Such an intriguing premise to this book, and introducing us to a new CID team, in a new location.
I loved it, and hope that this is the start of a compelling new series. A new narrator to me, but she did an excellent job, and clearly has a great talent for different accents.
