In Nicci French's thrilling fifth book, London psychotherapist Frieda Klein herself becomes the prime suspect in a murder.

A bloated corpse turns up in the Thames, throat slashed, and the only clue is a hospital wristband reading "Dr. F. Klein". Frieda is taken to see the body and realizes with horror that it is Sandy, her ex-boyfriend. She's certain that the killer is Dean Reeve - the man who has never stopped haunting her. But the police think he has been dead for years, and Frieda is their number one suspect. With few options, Frieda goes on the run to save herself and try to uncover the truth.

I am really enjoying this series of books, I just found them and I'm very excited to learn that the series is now complete, with the release of book 8! I must admit that I'm having trouble, I seriously want to skip to the last book and read backwards, they're that good! This story has great characters, page turning twists and unpredictable endings, like all the books in this series, well Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, those I've read and loved! Now on to Dark Saturday! Thanks to both author's and to narrator Beth Chalmers, job amazingly well done! 👾📚💖

I always enjoy the Frieda Kline stories, but occasionally I get very irritated with what appear to be very foolish actions by a smart woman. In this entry, however, even what seemed foolish was quite rational. Great characters. Looking forward to "Saturday. "

Best yet in the series

Twists and turns galore.

What did you like best about this story?

The psychological insight into human behavior. Frieda is maddening sometimes but always fascinating. All the characters are well defined. They are people I'd like to know.

Any additional comments?

I'm totally hooked on this series. Can't wait for the next book.

The best so far in a great series!

The hook of the mysterious killer/protector who haunts Frieda Klein is getting a bit stale. For goodness sake, it's been years, yet he's still out there, and Frieda still doesn't know where he is, and the police never seem to catch him, even though he has killed multiple times for Frieda. And they still don't believe her.

Yet, given all that, the characterisations are strong. The pace is excellent, and one just can't stop listening. Frieda, herself, is a masterful and memorable character.

Always welcome, but getting a little stale

I love a mystery I can’t figure out on my own. I like how the authors reveal Frida’s depth of character and compassion for friends and strangers alike indirectly and little by little.

Smart and captivating!

I really enjoy this series by Nicci French. It has a nice mix of psychology and crime. I don't, however, like the narrator. For the first time in a very long experience with Audible, I have had to reduce the speed of narration to avoid a very shrill voice. I also find too little differentiation between female voices. Male voices are lower than female, so one can tell men from women, but again, except for accented voices, it is very hard to tell one from another.

I don't understand either why Audible doesn't have the Saturday book. If anyone knows, I'd be grateful if they explained it.

Flawed reader; very good story

After the disappointment of the Thursday installment of the series, I began reading with some trepidation. My fears were soon dismissed by mid chapter one. Friday on My Mind is by far the best of the series. Hopefully, Saturday brings about more intrigue, and, perhaps, an end to the weekday thematic titles.

Friday -- the best day of the week
