About this listen

Two female paramedics murdered in a month. Is it coincidence, or are they victims of a serial killer? Detective Ella Marconi isn't sure, but goes hard after her key suspects, including police officer John Morris. But each turn of the case throws up more questions and entanglements, and Ella and her partner, Detective Murray Shakespeare, struggle to find the truth among the lies. Ella also attempts to balance work and her relationship with Dr. Callum McLennan, which is both growing both stronger and more difficult as they face Callum's mother's disapproval and the anniversary of his cousin's murder. Meanwhile, Carly Martens, paramedic and close friend of the second victim, conducts her own investigation. She's certain that her fellow paramedic Tessa Kimball is hiding something, and her refusal to let it go puts her, Tessa, and even Ella into more danger than Carly could ever imagine.

Detective Ella Marconi returns in this thrilling case, set against the dangerous background of drug deals, police corruption, and deadly consequences.

It was just okay--

Ella, the prime character, was not focused on enough. Instead the paramedic did a lot of the investigating. Was looking forward to continuing Ella's story, with per parents, with their sweet Caroline Lee voices, but very little was written about them. A lot of names again tossed about, less experiences of being a paramedic, and a lot of swearing -- again. 2 stars off for just that.

This is a talented writer but there is something missing re the transitions between books. The interest created in a previous book's character(s) is wasted because so many characters just disappear. But she is a very talented writer --it's disappointing that her focus seems to be on the wrong things in a lot of instances.

Caroline Lee is the BEST BEST--amazing. I LOVE her voices so much! They're so endearing, especially Ella's parents.
