About this listen

A victim? Or a killer?

One icy cold morning, the remains of a woman are discovered. She has been abused, then butchered. DI Kelly Porter knows this is the work of a monster. One who has killed before - and will do so again.

Kevin Flint is a young man with no friends and a reputation for being odd. He explores the hidden corners of the Lake District and likes to creep and watch. He witnesses depravity, and it excites him. But will he cross the line from bystander to perpetrator?

Despite her personal life taking unexpected turns, Kelly’s detective instincts tell her that the answers lie with Kevin - if only she knew the right questions to ask. Will Kelly miss her chance and have blood on her hands? And will she ever be the same when it’s over?

A stunning new DI Kelly Porter crime novel that is perfect for fans of Patricia Gibney, L. J. Ross, and Angela Marsons.

Oh dear

I have listen to all the books in the series. Excellent stories! BUT in this one the narrator has made the most dreadful attempt at a Scottish accent it really detracts from the story. If re-recording, make that officer English!

Another great chapter in the DI Kelly Porter serie

Loved listening to another story featuring DI Kelly Porter.
The narrator was good, clear spoken and easy to understand. I also enjoy that all of the stories were narrated by the same person making it easy to imagine the characters while listening to the story.

Great New Edition to Kelly Porter Series

The narration on the story was perfect. The characters had great new dimension and the setting was, as always, breathtaking. tThe one thing I would suggest is better editing to reduce the length. I found my mind drifting in spots when Lynch became repetitive or predictable. The story would move better with a bit less unnecessary detail.

Another fantastic book in the series

Great story, let down like all the other titles by poor recording. Narration is great but the quality is poor, especially considering how easy it is these days. Over distorted especially in the lower registers, Inexcusable with today’s technology’and spoils a good story and narration. Jeff Bezos, sort it out!!!!!

Meh

I like this series but this book has a lot of filler content. For example, near the end, the reader spends minute by minute steps with a character who is literally putting on a tie, driving his car, walking up the stairs, knocking on the door. The book is filled with that kind of writing. Overall, I can’t recommend it.

Hated it

I loved all the other books in this series but this one is too graphic & goes too far. I’m disappointed, I had been looking forward to it.
