Publisher's summary

Cyrus Haven and Evie Cormac return in this “expertly paced and psychologically acute” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) thriller from Michael Robotham that’s “one of his best, suspenseful and hard to put down” (Stephen King).

Twenty years ago, Cyrus Haven survived a family massacre. The killer? His brother Elias.

Now Elias is applying for release from a secure psychiatric hospital—and Cyrus is expected to forgive and welcome him home. In this “brilliant novel” (The Globe and Mail, Toronto), Elias is returning to a very different world. Cyrus is now a successful psychologist, working with the police, sharing his house with Evie Cormac, a damaged and gifted teenager who can tell when someone is lying.

When a man is murdered and his daughter Maya Kirk disappears, Cyrus is called in to profile the killer and help piece together Maya’s last hours. Soon, a second victim is taken, and Evie is the only person who glimpsed the man behind the wheel. But there’s a problem. Only two people believe her. One is Cyrus.

The other is the killer.

Long awaited … not disappointed

I have enjoyed listening to each installment of this series- the voice of each character is well developed by the author and acted by the narrator. Now I’m just sad it’s already done because I couldn’t stop listening. Bravo to all.

Brilliant all around!

I am a big fan of the Cyrus and Eve series. this book was brilliant all around! Robotham makes us empathize with each of the characters, such wonderful storytelling. Narration by Joe Jameson was spot on, perfection for each character. I never take time to write full reviews, but had to on this one. I cannot wait for the next book!

Love the main characters

The narration is perfect. The main characters have a unique bond. The storyline is also unique. A crime series different from all the rest. I am hoping for more to come.?

Perfect

You will not find a better story , performance or better written novel this year. Robotham is a master and this series with Cyrus and Evie just gets better.

Robotham the Reliable

I can always count on Mr Robotham to deliver great characters, and I really enjoy this eccentric pairing of Evie and Cyrus. Plot was okay. It’s probably just me but I’m sick to death of baby related stuff. On the other hand the addition of Cyrus’ dangerous schizophrenic brother was very interesting. Brought to mind a famous character in everyone’s favorite American novel, which would be a big spoiler if I named it. Overall satisfying. Looking forward to more from Evie and Cyrus. And remember: you can’t have the attic, and buttons are important.

The entire series is great!

I discovered this series on one of the Audible sales and am glad I did. Absolutely loved the first two with the third being just a little bit less loved due to the conclusion of the mystery surrounding Evy’s past. Definitely start with book 1 - it’s really a great listen in all aspects!

Best of the series so far

Of the 3 books I’ve listened to, this is the best so far, can’t fair to listen to the last one.
