Grave Doubts
I chose this book on the recomendation of Audible. It is an extemely long book, but it was gripping from beginning to end.
I don't suggest anyone reading it at bedtime as it might give them nightmares ! The book is very well written and I had great difficulty in stopping listening to it !!

Frantic
I thought the story was gripping drawing you into the plot but I felt the ending seemed to rush through to the finish but still a rivetting listen again as others have said the narrator was excellent.

Gripping but too violent
I have enjoyed the author's two previous books, Requiem Mass and Fatal Legacy, in which DCI Fenwick and his two assistants, Nightingale and Cooper, methodically investigate murders with all the set-backs and blind alleys that make the stories seem more authentic. One of things I liked about the earlier books was that the author left the detail of the murders to the reader's imaginations, whereas in Grave Doubts, she wallows in descriptions of cruelty and torture of women in overly lengthy lascivious detail that spoiled the book for me. I was also irritated by the ridiculous psychological rubbish she has a psychiatrist spouting. I accept many of the the clichés of detective fiction, but felt the ending of this book went over the top.
Some reviewers have thought the romantic strand in this book verged on Mills and Boon but I found it a welcome relief from the horrifying violence.

Started ok, but
Enjoyed this , at first, but much too long, and far too many deaths.

A bit cliched but still worth a read
I enjoyed this book as far as to say I got through several piles of ironing and a big garden clean up without noticing which always in my book shows I enjoy something. It was fast paced & had a few twists & turns but a lot of the story you could see coming and the ending was very much like it had been made for a tv drama. However I enjoyed it

Horrid but spell-binding
This is not a nice story but it will grip you as it gripped me, as you wait to find out whether good will triumph over evil. A believable heroine, a taciturn hero with private problems and a villain whose motives you understand but cannot forgive. Beautifully written and read, you will remember the characters long after the end of the book, and I will certainly keep an eye out for Elizabeth Corley in the future.

Love it, love it, love it.
This is the first book I have read (or listened to) by Elizabeth Corely and was seriously impressed. The story was gripping, exciting and full of detail; but interesting detail. Not drowning on about detailing every spec of the scene like some authors. Anyway without giving too much information away, this book is about a yound detective and her senior who try and catch a serial killer and the chase is on! The author has created great characters. You really tune in on everyone, its so well thoought out and not at all over the top - but still very tense.

Masterly plot
This is an excellent "listen" ... really cleverly crafted and well read. The fifth star was witheld because of some irritating phrases and modernisms.

the general plot was good
I found it a bit all over the place, story jumping from scene to scene and a bit difficult to get back into.
