Summary

DCI Kenny Murrain sees, hears and feels things that others do not. It’s a gift but also a curse. 

When he wakes to the phantom sound of screaming, he knows a murder has been committed, but not where or why. Then a woman’s body is found in a Stockport hotel room. It’s a murder that seems both frenzied and carefully planned, the scene expertly cleansed of any evidence. 

Over the following days, more bodies are discovered. The same frenzied attacks, the same meticulous planning. The same killer. The victims all have links to one man, a police colleague with a dark past. But Murrain discovers a more unexpected connection - with Marie Donovan, a former undercover officer now part of Murrain’s own team.

A little confusing at first because it was hard to separate the many characters.

A good listen

a bit slow of a storie and I didn't find much with the people in storie, pretty much an easy story to tell, but past the time and I listened to the end, a good writer for sure, just not a storie for me, to long for the ending. the reader was excellent by the way. no fault there at all, just some books grab you, this didn't for me, but will for so many..

yeah good pastime

Long winded and pretty predictable. Felt the ending was really pants and could have had longer on the ending rather than a lot of back and forth in the beginning

It was okay

Enjoyable story, found it a bit slow at first, and I think the narrator could’ve been better as everyone sounded the same. The story picked up after the second half and I did finish to the end.

Interesting
