Summary

Detective Beth Young traced the body in her mind.... His skull wasn’t harmed and neither was his spine...as if someone wanted him to survive only to experience the utmost suffering.

When Laura Sinclair arrives home, she is horrified to discover her sweet, kind husband James close to death. But this is no robbery gone wrong. There are over 200 breaks to his bones, each apparently applied carefully, symmetrically, methodically....

Laura insists that James is a man with no enemies. But how much does she know about her husband? And what secrets are hidden in the email account she discovers, filled with cryptic messages?

When two bodies are then pulled from Lake Windermere exhibiting similar injuries, it becomes clear that the killer they are calling the Sculptor is on a mission.

But Detective Beth Young is too. She knows that if she can work out the secrets of James’s past, she has a chance of locating he Sculptor’s next victim...and maybe the killer too.

Slow starter

I nearly gave up part the way through the listening to this .. unless you were doing nothing else and listening to it very carefully , because the narrators voice sounded the same throughout the book , it was hard to follow who was talking ( in the book ) and if anything exciting / thrilling / dangerous was happening g in the book

However I stuck to it and it did finally keep me interested .. The story line itself was probably fine , but the narrator needs to either show some ‘ interest ‘ in what she’s reading or do done different voices for the characters and maybe the tone showing some danger especially towards the latter stages of the book
