This is fast-paced and engaging from the outset. The narrators are excellent and I couldn't stop listening. Even though many of the characters are unsavoury, I still wanted to know the outcome.

I most liked the deliberate ambiguity throughout the book..a very engaging story which had me wanting to uncover the truth from early on!

Wonderfully well read as you'd expect from Jodie Comer with accents subtly used to reflect her emotions. Story is realistic and frightening, sad indictment of what many victims go through during and after an event like this.

This is my first book by this author and will not be my last after listening to this story. I feared it may be dull and hard to digest but the blend of historic detail with a great plot was thoroughly entertaining and I finished it wishing desperately that a follow-up would be already available. The narration was just what was needed for this story and whilst I would not say that the 15 hours+ flew by, I never stopped wanting to know how the story would end.

This is a complex subject in my view and all sides were explored in the book without losing the entertainment value of a story. Hats off to Claire Rushbrook whose performance was incredible and utterly believable - even in those scenes which covered the most extreme emotions. Not my first book by this author and definitely not my last. I was completely absorbed in it and my opinions on the basic premise swayed throughout..

I listen to many mystery/thrillers and the idea of this drew my interest as something a bit different. Rather than becoming silly after an initial burst of promise I felt this plot just kept going. It also raised thoughts to ponder whilst listening to, and after finishing, the book.

Despite the uncomfortable base to this story I could not stop listening to it. I found the main characters sufficiently developed to enhance the progress of the plot.
The narration was excellent - covering a variety of voice types and delivering the emotions in a compelling and believable way.

I love the atmosphere created in these books and the narration is excellent. A combination of murder/mystery, humour and history. Please keep them coming.

Warm, insightful and downright funny. Plus a stationery feel- what more could you ask. My first audible book and definitely not my last.
