About this listen
'Non-stop action, breakneck pace, deliciously suspenseful… When Shadows Fall was my first DS Max Craigie book and won’t be my last – I loved it.' Andrea Mara
'A good old police procedural… I was pleasantly terrified' The Guardian
'Bone-chilling and full of so many twists' The Sun
'Neil is the master of the crime mystery' Jeremy Vine
A TRAGIC DEATH
When the body of Leanne Wilson is found at the bottom of a Scottish mountain, it is classified as a tragic accident. There is no evidence to suggest otherwise.
A RISING BODY COUNT
Then DS Max Craigie discovers that five other women in the last year have died by falling off mountains, and something feels very wrong. They were all experienced climbers and alone when they died. This can only mean one thing: there’s a killer on the loose.
A KILLER IN THE SHADOWS
The more Max investigates, the more he believes that they are dealing with something much bigger than a lone serial killer. With five victims and conflicting clues, how do you catch someone committing the perfect crime?

Story
My nine-year-old daughter Hollie should be leaving school smiling and laughing with all the other children but she’s not here. I run frantically, checking everywhere, my voice growing louder, but I can’t see her bright blue eyes and heart-shaped face anywhere. Pure panic washes over me. This is my worst nightmare. Her teacher asks me if she should call the police. My heart stops. I shake my head and pretend I’ve made a mistake. I see a look of suspicion creep into the teacher’s eyes. But the police can’t know. No one can. My hands shake as I realise I’m completely on my own.

Story
Detective Constable Angus MacVicar has just landed his dream job – transferred out of uniform and assigned to Oldcastle’s biggest ongoing murder investigation: Operation Telegram, hunting the “Fortnight Killer”. Every two weeks another couple is targeted. One victim is left at the scene, their corpse used as a twisted message board. The second body is never seen again. This should be the perfect chance for Angus to prove himself, but instead of working on the investigation’s front line, he’s lumbered with the forensic psychologist from hell.

Story
Six weeks ago, Gideon Ryker awoke from a coma in the French chateau where veterans of the Foreign Legion live out their final days in peace. His body is a torturer’s canvas, his mind an empty slate—except for haunting dreams of a young girl’s face. He doesn’t even remember his name. But he knows that a legionnaire’s life is a brutal struggle. The only reward: a new identity and passport. A fresh start. You’d only take that deal if you needed to forget your past life.

Story
Northern Ireland, spring 1981. Hunger strikes, riots, power cuts, a homophobic serial killer with a penchant for opera, and a young woman’s suicide that may yet turn out to be murder: on the surface, the events are unconnected, but then things—and people—aren’t always what they seem. Detective Sergeant Duffy is the man tasked with trying to get to the bottom of it all. It’s no easy job—especially when it turns out that one of the victims was involved in the IRA but was last seen discussing business with someone from the loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force.

Katie's character is ridiculously immature!
I really like this series but Katie is too needy and lacks any substance for these story lines. I've always thought that Max would never be with a woman who is so insecure. LE or military could never handle this type of personality, IMO. Because of her constant berating of Max, I found this book more difficult to complete. Pregnant or not, her whinny childish attitude was too over the top and almost ruined the drama of the story.

Still good, but characters getting stale.
I’ve listened to every book in this series and pre-ordered this one, I’ve enjoyed them all, but there were times in this one when I wanted to fast forward through some of the dialogue particularly that relayed by “Ross” the boss. The character is intended, I’m sure, to be a grumpy and foul mouthed, but ultimately lovable and good hearted copper. The problem is that he’s become a bit ‘one note’ and a bore to listen to. It seems inconceivable that any organisation in this day and age would put up with him, and certainly I as a listener am finding it hard to.
Ross isn’t the only one however, character stagnation is also an issue with Katie and Max both constantly running the same dialogue re: work / life balance and being unhappy and or guilty with how they feel about it respectively. I get that this is a genuine concern for people in every day life, but it’s wearing to have it repeatedly re run by the same characters every few chapters.
I did enjoy the storyline, which was inventive and clever and although it wasn’t hard to figure out the perpetrators there were a few surprises.
Angus King’s narration is always great, though I struggled to tell his Barney from his Clive in this one, but maybe that was deliberate?!
