I loved it!
having listened to most recent in series I was a little unsure of tracking back, but I loved this. it unpacked the origin of the main characters , helped get a real feel for them against a backdrop plot that unwound slowly but satisfactorily. highly believable once again and wonderfully narrated - loved the Male voices. thank you! now for something completely different before returning to No 2!

Better than a police procedural
Brilliant. This is a well paced novel with a police setting. The characters are more central than the investigat

OK
Narrator’s Scottish and Irish accents were terrible. Story was OK but main character was irritatingly needy

good until the end
it was a really good story believable and gripping. that was until the last chapter and it left me totally disillusioned and thinking 'AS IF!!!'. a real disapointment .

Great story, not so great narration.
This book is so well written, with richly drawn, flawed characters. Whilst dealing with serious crime, the main Protagonist, DS Manon Bradshaw, is a highly competent professional, but she is particularly bad in dealing with her love life. There were at least a couple of times whilst listening that I was shouting ‘don’t do it’ in my head! She is, as are we all, just a complex, fallible human being.
Juanita McMahon is usually a very good narrator, but she dropped her usual standard here. The Irish and Scottish accents she produced are awful. She voiced Alan Prendagast, a love interest of Manon, as if he was in his 70s, when he is said to be 42, and young, streetwise Fly, aged 10 as if he we a much younger child, then only a year later as if he were an archetypal yob in his 20s, despite him being described as in the gifted range of intelligence and a sensitive boy. I hope she does a better job with the second book in the series, which I am now going on to listen to.

Brilliant Read
It was a recommendation by India Knight in the Sunday Times a couple of weeks back which alerted me to Susie Steiner. An excellent intelligent read, with believable flawed characters and a gripping plot. About to buy the rest in the series....

Brilliant, unusual and totally gripping
Some reviews mention the amount of time spent in the company of Manon, the detective, this is true, but we spend time with all the main characters, it is their interwoven narratives that make this such an unique story. The police procedure is believable, unlike a few novels I’ve read recently. A tiny flaw was the Scottish accent, but really this is a minor irritation as the whole tale quickly pulls you in and I wasn’t able to stop listening, and finished in record time; sadly. Looking forward to the next in the series.

Mixed Bag
Odd book with some good parts. Storyline good but let down by poor research into police investigation process. Ending seemed rushed so it then was obvious how it was resolved. Some parts were just silly and unnecessary for instance the woman in nursing home, Chloe the clingy girlfriend and the whole romance bit should have edited out and replaced with police work to find the missing woman. Then possibly some tension and suspense could have built up. That didn’t happen.

Great story.
Loved it. Great story. Great characters. Good narrator apart from the Scottish accent! I'm off to see if there are others in the series.
