About this listen

An edge-of-your-seat serial killer thriller that you won’t be able to put down!

There it is: fear. It’s crawling all over her face and in her eyes, like a swarm of insects, and it’s all because of him.

A serial killer has been terrorising Lancaster for decades, longer than should ever have been possible. The police are baffled, eluded at every turn by the killer whose victims span generations. Speculation is rife among the true crime forums; is someone passing on their gruesome trade?

Every local mother's worst nightmare has become Helen Summerton's reality; he’s taken her daughter, Zoe. As the clock runs down so do her chances of survival. Can Helen unearth the secrets of the killer before it’s too late?

A gripping serial killer thriller that you won’t be able to put down. Perfect for fans of The Whisper Man, What You Did and Don’t Even Breathe.

Great start to a promising career

I enjoyed the audio which felt like I was witnessing a play from behind a curtain. All the characters brought to life and could imagine being in the environments that were skilfully described. Small observation; adults trying to do child voices, don't always land well.
A Great start to a promising career for Rosie. Look forward to reading her second book.

Tension, anxiety and concern - realistic scenes

Brilliantly structured and written with designed in open ends to allow the reader to conclude the missing pieces of the plot. It is very cleverly written , examining personal situations , feelings and experiences showing that the author has a broad awareness of people and how they think and feel. A story you will want to read again and again and look for other work by this author.

Nice story

I enjoyed the story, well written which kept you hooked. Wasnt too keen on the female narrator. She seemed to leave gaps in talking where there would have been a comma, it meant that it felt disjointed.

Impressive debut novel

I was impressed hugely with the stark contrasts within this book. On the one hand there is the likeable, and plausible, ‘niceness’ of the main characters. This compared to the absolute horror that is the psychopath. I couldn’t stop listening. Lots of layers. I like that.

The actors reading the book brought it completely to life. They delivered, with total conviction and skill, the creepiness and the terror within.

I rate thus book highly because it shows such promise and skill. This author has worked hard to hone her skills and I can’t wait for her next book.

Awful

Although I will admit to not being able to complete the book. I tried twice. I found the male accents very hard to understand. Not an easy listen and not for everyone.

Mediocre

OK. Title inadequately reflected in the story which was predictable and slow. Wouldn't read another of hers
