About this listen

The international best seller that "grabs the reader by the throat" (Crime Time).

First in the new series featuring Detective Inspector Helen Grace.

Two people are abducted, imprisoned, and left with a gun. As hunger and thirst set in, only one walks away alive.

It's a game more twisted than any Detective Inspector Helen Grace has ever seen. If she hadn't spoken with the shattered survivors herself, she almost wouldn't believe them.

Helen is familiar with the dark sides of human nature, including her own, but this case - with its seemingly random victims - has her baffled. But as more people go missing, nothing will be more terrifying than when it all starts making sense....

Critic reviews

"Dark, twisted, thought-provoking, and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. Take a ride on this roller coaster from hell - white knuckles guaranteed." (Tami Hoag, number one New York Times best-selling author of Cold Cold Heart)

"No doubt about it! Eeny Meeny debuts one of the best new series detectives, Helen Grace. Determined, tough, and damaged, she must unravel a terrifying riddle of a killer kidnapping victims in pairs to send a particularly personal message. Mesmerizing!" (Lisa Gardner, number one New York Times best-selling author of Crash & Burn)

"What a great premise!... Eeny Meeny is a fresh and brilliant departure from the stock serial killer tale. And Detective Inspector Helen Grace is one of the greatest heroes to come along in years." (Jeffery Deaver, New York Times best-selling author of The Skin Collector and Solitude Creek)

I wasn't in love with this book. The back made it seem like everything was going to be so twisted and it was but not really. I felt disconnected from the characters and didn't see much growth throughout the story. I MIGHT read the next one.

Not Super Impressed

I love this series!

I didn't hate it, but from start to finish I just kept thinking how convoluted the whole story was. -Too many hoops to go through makes too many loop holes!
It did hold my interest, and I liked the interwoven point of view of the serial killer, but I really would have liked it to be dialed down a little.

I never believed it

So glad I discovered Helen Grace. Can’t wait to listen to the entire series and the gritty cases.

Can’t wait to hear the next in the series.

Would you try another book from M. J. Arlidge and/or the narrators?

Definitely from the narrators - they did a superior job, and were the only reason I finished the book.

Would you ever listen to anything by M. J. Arlidge again?

Maybe. Just maybe. But more likely, not. The author really needs to hone his craft. As one earlier reviewer mentioned, there were strange jumps in this book, where the lead character seems to know something and does something, and it comes out of the blue.

Perhaps his later books are better written?? Not sure. This book could have been good - there were interesting and even compelling characters, a creepy killer, and all the right ingredients to a good detective mystery novel.

However, it really fell short due to poor story-telling/ weak weaving in of the details.

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The narrators were the only reason I stuck with the book. They brought the characters to life, gave them personality, and made the story seem better than it otherwise would have been.

Was Eeny Meeny worth the listening time?

Well, I won't listen to it again. But as I stayed busy and this was playing in the background, I don't resent it too much.

Almost Good
