Story
A family is gunned down in the snow, but one of the children survives. Three years on, that child takes revenge, and the Snow Killer is born. But then, nothing - no further crimes are committed, and the case goes cold. 50 years later, has the urge to kill been reawakened? As murder follows murder, the detective team tasked with solving the crimes struggle with the lack of leads. It’s a race against time and the weather - each time it snows, another person dies.

This took me a little while to get into how it was delivered but once I did I really enjoyed this story, a bit of a twist towards the end made me realise the assumptions I had made… clever author.
Good narration.

Story
Caleb Lambert kills people for a living. The money is nice, but it comes a distant second to his primary reason for choosing such a vocation: Caleb often calls it “scratching an itch”. Here’s the thing, though: Caleb won’t just accept any contract. He and his team thoroughly vet each and every prospective mark to make sure they deserve to be punished.

I’ve had this book on my tbr list for a while, I’m glad I finally got round to downloading it.
Caleb is a brutal killer there’s no doubt about that but he’s also a very likeable character.
I really enjoyed this book and I see there’s some others so I’m definitely going to check them out.
Loved the narration, his voice really suited my visual of Caleb.

Story
Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. Death is the Grim Reaper of the Discworld, a black-robed skeleton with a scythe who ushers souls into the next world. He is also fond of cats and endlessly baffled by humanity. Soon Death is yearning to experience what humanity really has to offer, but to do that, he'll need to hire some help. It's an offer Mort can't refuse. As Death's apprentice he'll have free board, use of the company horse—and being dead isn't compulsory. It's a dream job—until Mort falls in love with Death's daughter, Ysabell.

Story
What was it like? Living in that house. Maggie Holt is used to such questions. Twenty-five years ago, she and her parents, Ewan and Jess, moved into a rambling Victorian estate called Baneberry Hall. They spent three weeks there before fleeing in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a memoir called House of Horrors. His tale of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon. Now, Maggie has inherited Baneberry Hall after her father's death.

Some good twists here that I didn’t see coming.

Haunted possession:
Sarah is still learning how to hone her ‘gift’ since the events at Perron Manor but a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing and that proves to be the case when they are called to a possession.
A good horror that has no trouble holding you in its icy grip.
Haunted Mother Death:
David and his team are sent on a separate haunting to Sarah and father Janosch, after their last outing together David is happy to be on a routine haunting with his team but things may not be as they seem.
I’m loving this haunted series the horror fan in me is enjoying the thrill of fear they provoke.
Haunted Asylum:
Sarah at last gets to understand her role in the gates of hell but the good verses evil still hangs in the balance and Sarah’s fate could go either way!
This narrator does an absolutely great job.

Tiffany Aching is ready to begin her apprenticeship in magic, but life isn't exactly what she thought it would be. She expects spells and magic - not chores and ill-tempered goats! Surely there must be more to witchcraft than this? And Tiffany will find that she needs her magic more than ever, to fight off the insidious, disembodied creature that is pursuing her. This time, neither Mistress Weatherwax (the greatest witch in the world) nor the fierce, six-inch-high Wee Free Men can protect her. In the end, it will take all of Tiffany's inner strength to save herself.
