Summary

When a corpse is found floating in the River Thames, the police can at least be sure that identifying the victim will be straightforward. Around the dead man's wrist is a hospital band. On it are the words 'Dr F. Klein'.

But psychotherapist Frieda Klein is very much alive. And, after evidence linking her to the murder is discovered, she becomes the prime suspect.

gripping plot from the start

Big fan of Freda hope she does not dissappear now we have reached Friday and the weekend.I thought the narrator was fantastic Freda ' voice as I have imagined.The previous books I have read in paperback format so the narrator was important to my mental picture.I was ill in bed with flue I the plot was straight in and fast paced.I think a book has succeded when you can actually visualise them in your head

Simply superb!

Another awesome story from Nicci French. The writing gets into your soul, so it becomes a part of you, helped by the amazing narration. Anyone can be accused of murder it seems.

Another sleepless night with back to back ....

Tales of Freida, a most unlikeable protagonist, but the carnage around her is addictive x

Good story but just a tad too much padding...

The problem with audio books is that you can't skip read when you get to long passages that add nothing to the story, just pad it out!
The story was pretty good, but I really don't need to know the entire contents of a shop she goes into, and some of the dialogue exchange between the characters was annoyingly slow. I am sure that most readers / listeners are quietly saying 'for goodness sake get on with it' !. If it was suspense the author was trying to build in by drawing out these conversations, I'm afraid she didn't succeed. If you can put up with that though, then its an easy read (listen).

Another Excellent Frieda Klein Story

I've only ever listened to this series on Audible, largely because of the excellent Beth Chalmers. I particularly enjoyed this story because it was a little different, with Frieda spending most of in a different environment. As always, an excellent and compelling listen.

Fab story

The story was as gripping as ever from Nicci French but I did find the accents from the narrator very off-putting/irritating, sorry.

Good not great

Passed the time but not enthralling. Didn’t feel characters were rounded and had no attachment to the central character. Some of the voices were OK but others were very, very similar. Won’t listen again but would listen to another if on offer.
