About this listen

Rookie homicide detective Louise Rick makes her debut in this thrilling number one international best seller that launched three-million-copy best-selling writer Sara Blaedel's incredible career.

A young woman is found strangled in a park, and a male journalist has been killed in the backyard of the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen.

Detective Louise Rick is put on the case of the young girl, but very soon becomes entangled in solving the other homicide, too, when it turns out her best friend, journalist Camilla Lind, knew the murdered man. Louise tries to keep her friend from getting too involved, but Camilla's never been one to miss out on an interesting story. And this time, Camilla may have gone too far....

Emotionally riveting and filled with unexpected twists, The Midnight Witness is a tour-de-force from international phenomenon Sara Blaedel.

"Crime-writer superstar Sara Blaedel's great skill is in weaving a heartbreaking social history into an edge-of-your-chair thriller while at the same time creating a detective who's as emotionally rich and real as a close friend." (Oprah.com)

Well thought-out mystery.

Christine Lakin as a narrator is quite simply the best. And Sara Blaedel’s writing is so good. She takes her time, but the plot twist is well worth it. Love the characters.

Not as exciting as I hoped.

The story is okay. A good listen. But as I was listening, I was waiting for more excitement or thrill but that didnt come. I will try the next story and hope it is a bit better.

Superfluous Verbose

Nine chapters in, and this story is going nowhere. Book is in need of some serious editing, or at least some editing. Can't believe I stuck in tthere this long. I guess I was hoping/waiting for ot to start moving along, but my patience with this story is at it's end.

Not Up to Par

Disappointing and very predictable. Narration is fine but the story needs a lot be desired. Interesting setting and there a couple of good twists and turns. Was hoping to find a new series but will look elsewhere.
