About this listen
The girl stared unseeing up to the blue sky. Her mouth was open, as if she was about to speak, to cry for help… but her voice had been silenced forever.
When Detective Kim Stone and her team are sent to Westerley, a forensic research facility, they discover the body of a young woman, her mouth filled with soil. But she doesn’t belong there. It seems a killer has discovered the perfect cover for their crime.
Kim breaks the devastating news of Jemima’s murder to her parents, who speak of a gentle soul with no enemies. Yet when Jemima’s sister confides in Kim that she was afraid to leave the house, Kim is certain that Jemima knew her killer, and is determined to find this brutal murderer before he strikes again.
Scouring Jemima’s crime scene, Kim finds a hairgrip, decorated with a heart cut in two. Then a second woman is attacked and left for dead, her mouth crammed with dirt, just like Jemima’s. A similar hairgrip is found nearby. But when she wakes in hospital, she can’t remember what happened, only the sing-song rhyme one for you and one for me.
As Kim stares into her tear-filled eyes, she vows to uncover what links the women. And when she learns they went to the same school, she knows the answers lie buried in the past. But then a third woman goes missing, and she knows time is running out. Can she find the truth before a twisted, damaged mind claims another life?
An absolutely heart-pounding mystery thriller from multi-million-copy number one bestseller Angela Marsons that will have you hooked on the Detective Kim Stone series.
Can be enjoyed as a standalone.

DI Kim Stone is a amongst the best!
The fourth Kim stone book is no disappointment. Fast paced, great story, believable characters. I listened in a day, I was hooked till the end. One of the best thriller writers around and Kim Stone is here to stay. If you are wondering if this book is for you, it is!!!!

I enjoyed this book very much.
This is my favourite from the series so far and narrated very well although some place names were pronounced oddly such as Stourton.

What a great find
I am just going through a rabbit hole of listening to this series in order and they are so good. I found them when I listened to one of the books on netgalley and I just had to have the entire series which is what I am doing now.
I never thought of body farms in the UK before so what an interesting twist.
The story just keeps you engaged throughout and it works so well.
I am just getting involved with the group who have now become like a family.

Twists, turns and red herrings galore
Any additional comments?
The brilliant Angela Marsons has done it again with this latest DI Kim Stone offering (the fourth in the series). A body farm (a place where the decomposition of human remains can be scientifically studied) is an inspired setting for a crime to take place, and as for the killer – wow. The background of this disturbed individual comes out slowly and is utterly ingenious, the voice of the individual is so strong.
There are twists, turns and red herrings galore, along with a nail-biting showdown that literally had me on the edge of my seat. But there is far more to Angela Marsdon’s writing than just clever plotting; she gets under the skin of her characters. There was even a section about Kim that brought a tear to my eyes. It was heart-breaking, and so brilliantly handled.
I listened to this on audio, rather than read it, and the narrator was brilliant. She added further depth to the story. My incredibly dull three-hour drive whizzed by in entertaining fashion. This gets a big fat five stars from me!

Gripping story
I really enjoy these Kim Stone stories and how they all link into each other. I even had a little tear in my eye at the end, wasn't expecting to see a softer side to Kim.

A great book in this series
Another instalment and a great addition to the series. Gripping read about a murder of a girl and the following twists and turns make this a book well worth reading (or listening!) if you like this genre x

Excellent read
I thought it was so gory at the beginning, then the story began. Full of suspence. Edge of the seat stuff. Well read too.
