About this listen

The woman’s bright blonde hair floats in the breeze. She almost looks like she could be resting on the soft green grass. But her brown eyes stare unblinking up at the sky, and the final cut across her mouth is dark with blood. Her words silenced forever....

Late one evening, as the final church bell rings out, Sandra Deakin’s cold and lifeless body is found in the overgrown graveyard with multiple stab wounds. When Detective Kim Stone rushes to the scene, the violence of the attack convinces her that this murder was deeply personal. What could have caused such hate?

As the team dig into Sandra’s life, they discover she believed she could communicate with the dead. Was that why she was targeted? The last people to see her alive were a group of women who had a session with her the night before she was killed, and as Kim and her team pay them a visit, they soon learn each of the women is lying about why they wanted Sandra’s help.

Kim realizes she must dig deep and open her mind to every avenue if she’s going to stand a chance at solving this case. And when she learns that Sandra was banned from the church grounds and had been receiving death threats too, she’s ever more certain that Sandra’s gifts are at the heart of everything.

But just when she thinks she’s found a lead, the broken body of a 19-year-old boy is found outside a call center–a single slash across his mouth. Kim knows they are now racing against time to understand what triggered these attacks and to stop a twisted killer.

But they might be too late. Just as Kim sits down at a local psychic show, she discovers something that makes her blood run cold. Both Sandra and the call center were named in an article about frauds. And this show stars the next name on the list. She looks around the audience with a feeling of utter dread, certain the killer is among them.

Totally addictive with a final twist that will leave you shouting out loud, you’ll want to inhale Deadly Fate in one sitting. Fans of Karin Slaughter, Val McDermid, and Robert Dugoni will love the new crime thriller from best-selling author Angela Marsons.

Can be listened to as a stand-alone.

Better every time!

I am an avid fan of this series. Angela is an excellent author, with such attention to detail. Absolutely adore the characters, brought alive through outstanding narration. A story full of twist and turns, making it impossible to press pause. My only complaint is that I have to keep waiting for the next book!

Another unputdownable read!

Once again, the story involving Kim and her team kept me wondering just what was going to happen next.
I loved the gift Kim received; it made me cry.
Bring on the next installment! I just have to know how the young DC is going to handle her situation.
Really should learn some self-control. I wait months for these stories, and then, I read them in a day. I just get pulled in completely.

Another great story

Love Angela Marstons books… good story again…. however, I was disappointed by the sing song school teacher reading a story voice to young kids used by the narrator…. maybe it’s just me but it grated all the way through &
only the fact it was a Marson book. ours I finish it

Fantastic, as expected

Another good read, I’m happy to say I caught this author early instead of jumping on the band wagon (which I normally do).

Doesn’t disappoint

The return of Kim in this book does not disappoint. She is everything you want her to be plus a little more. The only problem with this book is that I can’t immediately read the next one! Gripped all the way through. A great listen.

What a way to end.

I always enjoy a Kim Stone story. Didn't like the sudden ending, felt like it was a can't be bothered to write anymore moment. just as things were getting good.
Now I am going to have to wait and wonder how will Stacey cope?
please don't keep me wondering for too long.
