Riveting...couldn't stop listening.

Excellent story line and the best performance ever!! The characters came to life they were so expertly portrayed. That certainly adds to the success of this story. Depicted so clearly, a the listener could actually "see" the story! Outstanding. Will definitely want to hear more from both the Author and the orator.

Love it

When Imogen Church is narrating, I’m listening.
I’ve found books with Simon narrating on Hoopla.

A fabulous thriller with two of the best narrators in the business!

I loved this book! Does anyone know if SJ Holliday is also Susi Holliday? Regardless, this was a fast-paced, multi-POV thriller with an Antagonist you somehow empathized with. I DID lack some
clarity on why “Party Girl” targeted random
Men rather than insisting the police hunt down the guilty parties? Not to mention that, considering her profession, she herself would have been capable of the DNA profiling? But that aside, I loved this one! I always adore the somewhat stereotypical (but always fun!) banter btwn opposite sex police detectives & “Becks” was the perfect female protagonist.

Sorry, NO

The story started out as a winner, but as it progressed it became trite and silly. I did finish, but only because it was just under 8 hours, (but I was counting the minutes.) I think a good editor could have helped.
