Summary
One cold spring morning in County Cork, two fishermen find a bundle of rags floating in the Blackwater River. It is the bloated body of Father Heaney. His hands and feet are bound, and his neck bears the marks of garrotting wire. Worse still, he has been castrated.
When a second priest is found murdered, his body bruised and beaten and the same savage wound hidden beneath his soutane, Detective Inspector Katie Maguire finds evidence of a sinister cover-up at St Joseph's Orphanage. But the Catholic diocese still wields considerable power here, and the Garda are under pressure to close the case.
Katie has to work alone if she is to catch the killer in time - but first she must shatter a wall of silence that for decades has hidden a terrible secret. A secret that is beyond belief...

Harrowing
Not a book I could say I loved, but a very well written, if horrific, thriller.
Beautifully performed by the reader.

Gripping and Gruesome
What made the experience of listening to Broken Angels: Kate Maguire Book 2 the most enjoyable?
Great narration, and a storyline that kept me gripped to the end.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Broken Angels: Kate Maguire Book 2?
Unfortunately I think it will be the graphically described torture that will stay with me, although it was the likeable characters and sense of humour that made the book so enjoyable.
What does Caroline Lennon bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Her Irish accent.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes
Any additional comments?
A good listen. Some of the gruesome bits were a little too grisly for my taste.

great storytelling
this is another great listen, superbly read. the only disappointment is that the author used the same story thread with a side character that added nothing to the experience. that aside this is another masterpiece from the author

Too near the Truth
If you could sum up Broken Angels: Kate Maguire Book 2 in three words, what would they be?
So very real
What other book might you compare Broken Angels: Kate Maguire Book 2 to, and why?
Kate Maguire Book 1. This is a fascinating seriesand one feels one is there
Have you listened to any of Caroline Lennon’s other performances? How does this one compare?
No. Her performance was excellent and her ability to separate the charaters was great.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The last few words
Any additional comments?
At times I thought I must have strayed into an Edgar Alan Poe story- it was so terrifying but one had to listen all the way through. It is so topical and one finds that one believes it has happened in real life
