Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Chosen Ones by Howard Linskey.

Eva Dunbar wakes in a large metal box. She has no idea who has taken her. She has no way out....

Eva isn't the first young woman to disappear. Detective Ian Bradshaw, heading up the search, has no leads - and precious little time.

When at last a body is found, the police hope the tragic discovery might at least provide a clue that will help them finally find the kidnapper.

But then they identify the body - and realise the case is more twisted than they ever imagined....

I didn't realize this was a part of a series. I still probably would have grabbed this even if I did just because most crime and/or police procedural are acceptable to jump in wherever. I feel like missed some things in this book. I should have started at book 1. That's my fault. However, the story-line was pretty good. I love a good mystery.

I loved the narrator. Kieran Bew. There was a bit of a British accent, I think anyway. I enjoy the accents immensely! I think I'm going to check out other books narrated by Bew.

Decent story, great narration

I've been through all the books in this series and this was the best so far. It's definitely different than most of the other crime fiction books out there. I never know what to say in a review without spoiling the whole book. I do think British narrators are always a plus. I'm very picky with books I rate and it has to pretty good for me to write anything in a review. Trust me it's worth the credit

Just completed most recent book in the series and hope there is a new one coming soon. Narrator is excellent and story line held my interest and moved along at a good pace.

I really like this series

Read the previous books in this series prior to reading this one. I didn’t and it took me several tries to get into this book. The pace was a little slow for my taste with too much detail not related to the plot.

Good book
