About this listen

Criminologist Martin Knight lives a gilded life and is a thorn in the side of the police. But then his wife, Liz, goes missing. There is no good explanation and no sign of Martin.... To make things worse, Liz is the ex-girlfriend of DCI Craig Gillard, who is drawn into the investigation.

Is it just a missing person or something worse? And what relevance do the events around the shocking Girl F case, so taken up by Knight, have to do with the present? The truth is darker than you could ever have imagined.

Excellent

This was my first book by this author and I wasn’t disappointed, having read innumerable detective novels I’m always looking for new authors and intend to listen to his other novels.
This is a must read I highly recommend and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

Gripping

This is the best book I’ve read/listened to for ages. I t got my attention from the beginning and never failed keeping my interest. The plot was complicated but in the end plausible. It must have been well researched for which the author has my admiration. I shall be moving on to the next in the series.

Excellent

First book I have listened too by Nick Louth and already bought second in the series. Good story line and took straight away to main character DCI Craig Gillard. Narration was excellent. Looking forward to the rest of the series

Long and complex: satisfactory read

A case so complex, that it takes the cops 2 cases to solve this one.
The narrator sometimes makes attempts to speak in a foreign accent. I don't like that. Otherwise this is very well narrated.

Found a new detective series to follow

Really enjoyed the twists and turns of this complex story. Satisfying ending. I have already bought the next in the series. Happily there seems to be a number of books in this series so no long wait.

Brilliant!

Really enjoyed this from start to finish. Some of the accents were 'off' but it didn't really detract much. Will definitely get more from the author.
