About this listen

What would you do if someone used your deepest secrets to commit the darkest crimes?

When the cold, lifeless body of a policeman is pulled from the river Thames in the early hours of the morning, it appears at first glance to be a terrible accident.

But when old diary pages predicting the exact details of the crime start appearing online, criminal psychologist Nathan Radley, the owner of the diary, becomes the number one suspect in the most disturbing murder investigation the London police have ever seen.

Nathan’s partner, Detective Katie Rhodes, is sure he’s innocent, because she was with him the night of the attack. But as more extracts are posted, and more bodies begin to surface, how much longer can she ignore the connection?

The trail leads Katie from one dead end to another until a tiny clue buried deep within the pages of the diary gives her a glimmer of hope that Nathan could be innocent. The only thing she knows for sure is she’s hunting for someone calculated and incredibly dangerous, but how many precious lives will be lost before she can work out who?

A nail-biting and enthralling thriller that fans of Peter James, Angela Marsons and Rachel Abbott will adore.

Don’t.

I didn’t know that this was the second in a series. I’m not sure how much difference my not having read the first one made in my appreciation of this one. I’m guessing not much. It definitely felt like one long epilogue, tying up loose ends from the first book, but it was so tremendously boring and low stakes that I have no desire to go back and listen to the first.
If you did read the previous, I’d still say skip this one, unless you are deeply invested in the characters. Which I cannot imagine, as they were so badly fleshed out and, frankly, annoying. Totally unrealistic, not very clever even though they’re supposed to be brilliant, and yeah, not very likeable at all. And boring. Did I mention boring? Lead guy is a navel gazer, lead girl is obsessed with the scar marring her otherwise attractive face and her injury-derived infertility. Other lead girl acts like a teenager despite the fact that she’s supposed to be a very smart cop. And the bad guy? Goofy with a boring motivation. I didn’t really care what happened to any of them.
I had to listen on double speed to get through it.
Save your money and your credits and skip this stinker.
