Summary
THE HEART-POUNDING NEW NOVEL IN THE KAREN PIRIE SERIES, NOW A MAJOR ITV SERIES STARRING LAUREN LYLE
__________
Edinburgh, haunted by the ghosts of its many writers, is also the cold case beat of DCI Karen Pirie. So she shouldn't be surprised when an author's manuscript appears to be a blueprint for an actual crime.
Karen can't ignore the plot's chilling similarities to the unsolved case of an Edinburgh University student who vanished from her own doorstep. The manuscript seems to be the key to unlocking what happened to Lara Hardie, but there's a problem: the author died before he finished it.
As Karen digs deeper, she uncovers a spiralling game of betrayal and revenge, where lies are indistinguishable from the truth and with more than one unexpected twist . . .
The Queen of Crime Val McDermid is at the top of her game in her most gripping and fiendishly clever case yet.

Great to have Cathleen McCarron back
I'm a big fan of the Karren Pirie series and the wonderful narration of Cathleen McCarron, This story was interesting and I really enjoyed all the twists and turns and the sideline stories about the other characters. The only downside is that it brought back all the unpleasant memories of the beginning of the pandemic and lockdown. It'll be interesting to have it registered in the book for prosperity but it's not something that I'd like to think about anymore.

The return of KP nuts
Our Karen Pirie is back . So pleased this book was reissued with Cathleen McCarron as narrator (despite wasting a credit on previous execrable version).

Another great book by the author
As usual, the author managed to bring to life the characters and make the story a compelling read. Some aspects didn’t hang completely believable to me but this did not detract too much from the enjoyment.

Cathleen McCarron is back!
I'm so glad this was re-recorded with the original narrator. I really enjoyed the story but couldn't have listened to it with another narrator. Great to have Karen Pirie back!

I am really glad that this book was re-issued with Cathleen McCarron narrating.
It was another Karen Pirie cracker.
