Two murders. An abandoned asylum. Will a mysterious former patient help untangle the dark truth?
The body of an elderly woman has been found in the bowels of a derelict asylum on the banks of the Thames. As Detective Lew Kirby and his partner begin their investigation, another body is discovered in the river nearby. How are the two murders connected?
Before long, the secrets of Blackwater Asylum begin to reveal themselves. There are rumours about underground bunkers and secret rooms, unspeakable psychological experimentation, and a dark force that haunts the ruins, trying to pull back in all those who attempt to escape. Urban explorer Connie Darke, whose sister died in a freak accident at the asylum, is determined to help Lew expose its grisly past. Meanwhile Lew discovers a devastating family secret that threatens to turn his life upside down.
As his world crumbles around him, Lew must put the pieces of the puzzle together to keep the killer from striking again. Only an eccentric former patient really knows the truth - but will he reveal it to Lew before it’s too late?

Way too many characters
The story was good but it had too many characters. It was very hard to keep up with them all. It was confusing trying to remember who they were and what they had to do with anything. I had to force myself to continue with the book.

Not for me
I can't say if this was good or bad. I got all the way through it. It just didn't fully hold my attention. Found myself kind of zoning out. Then trying to figure out where the story was.
I thought it would be great and was looking forward to it. It had everything I love British accent, bodies in an asylum and apparently my new thing urban exploring.
For some reason I just couldn't get into it. I mean it was well written and a good story. It just didn't lay out the way I was expecting (hoping).

Hoping for a second book!
I have a hard time getting into books so I was apprehensive about buying it. I'm so very glad I did. The book being set in England and having the narrator have a British accent was a lovely touch. I was NOT disappointed in any way!

Had potential
The story would have been interesting if it wasn’t so confusing. I couldn’t keep all the characters straight and remember who was who. The narrator was good at doing different voices but the volume of his voice would fluctuate a lot and go so low you couldn’t even hear what he was saying.

Good book
A murdered elderly woman found at an abandoned asylum raises more questions than answers. A secret room in the bowels of the asylum contains the cremated remains of unclaimed residents in jars. As DI Kirby looks further into the defunct asylum, he discovers that the doctor in charge used to conduct experiments on residents. Someone doesn’t want the truth exposed.

Mystery
The narrator was difficult to follow sometimes when his voice would go low with his accent. I found it easier to follow as I progressed through the book.

Formulaic
This was one of the most boring books I've ever tried to wade through. There was nothing outstanding about it. I was very disappointed.
