About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The fourth Jackson Brodie novel: literary crime from the prizewinning number-one bestselling author of Big Sky and Transcription.

A day like any other for security chief Tracy Waterhouse, until she makes a shocking impulse purchase. That one moment of madness is all it takes for Tracy's humdrum world to be turned upside down, the tedium of everyday life replaced by fear and danger at every turn.

Witnesses to Tracy's outrageous exchange in the Merrion Centre in Leeds are Tilly, an elderly actress teetering on the brink of her own disaster, and Jackson Brodie, who has returned to his home county in search of someone else's roots. All three characters learn that the past is never history and that no good deed goes unpunished.

'Crime has given Atkinson the freedom to write an ambitious, panoramic work, full of excitement, colour and compassion' Sunday Times

Perfect relaxing reading during turbulent times.

Beautifully written, Kate Atkinson is a genius. It is wonderfully performed by Jason Isaacs. I have already bought the sequel and plan on looking for more by them.

A good twisty mystery

This is a great book to listen to, riveting with just the right amount of action, contemplative moments, and character development. It would be nice if there was a bit more distinction between points of view and past/present scenes, as the story jumps around a fair bit.
