About this listen

Meet Zoe Finch, West Midlands Police's newest Detective Inspector. She's outspoken, ambitious, and damaged. And she's working a case that could make her career, or cost her everything...

Fresh from the success of the Canary investigation into depravity and corruption at the highest levels, Zoe has attracted attention. Not least from Assistant Chief Constable Bryn Jackson.

But when Jackson is brutally murdered on the night of his retirement party, Zoe is dragged into a case that's deeply personal.

All the evidence points to the victim's downtrodden wife, who has secrets of her own.

But Zoe begins to suspect all isn't as it seems. Could Jackson's death be linked to the Canary case? And what is her new boss, DCI David Randle, hiding?

Seeking out the truth will force Zoe to confront her own past and put her career, and her team's lives, on the line.

Deadly Wishes is a gritty crime thriller perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Caroline Mitchell, and the BBC's Line of Duty.

Perfectly OK

This was an OK story. The plot was decent, but I thought the pace was slow. I also found the ending a bit disappointing. The characters were interesting and I did want to know more about them. That would be the main driver of continuing the series (haven’t decided yet).

Jan Cramer is objectively a pretty good narrator- she doesn’t make pronunciation errors and it’s easy to tell who’s who. But there is something about her as narrator I’m just not fond of. I’ve listened to a lot of books with her as narrator, but still can’t quite put my finger on why I’m not fond of her narration.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
