About this listen
Detective Inspector Alison Raines is a woman dedicated to the job, that job being to protect her city and to speak for the dead. Her uncomplicated world is coming to an end with a cancer diagnosis that will cut short a life that revolved around work and little else.
Her answer to rapidly approaching finish line is to tie up the cases that no one believes are murders but her gut tells her otherwise. Sure that not every accidental death is what it seems, but with her condition rapidly deteriorating and her medication regiment taking its toll on her ability to think clearly, those around her have come to question a judgement previously untainted.
With a fiercely loyal partner that only ever wanted to learn from her at her side and a rational scientist by his, Raines is about to enter a labyrinth of dark supernatural terror that defies belief.
Raines is forced to open herself to the friends that she never knew she had and to the fact that perhaps she never knew as much as she previously thought about the criminal world that existed around her. With her own time running out she will be faced with the ultimate life and death decision.
Sometimes the world needs a hero, sometimes it needs a monster.

Author's Note: This book was previously published under the title The Taste of Fear. Given that the story takes place deep in the Congo jungle, a truly terrifying place, I decided it would be a good fit with the World's Scariest Places series. In the jungle, no one can hear you scream. American movie star Scarlett Cox and her husband, hotel tycoon Salvador Brazza, head to Africa to get away and resuscitate their ailing marriage. When robbed of their money and passports, they seek help from the U.S. Embassy in Dar es Salaam on the very day Al Qaeda chooses to bomb it. In an eyeblink they are...

In a time before the internet and ravenous social media the death was covered up by the studio and only those involved ever knew what really happened as the four...
