About this listen

MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR
Newly promoted Detective Superintendent Jack Hawksworth has headed up three major serial operations in England and in each of these cases he has lost a part of himself. While on sabbatical as guest lecturer in a London university, one of his female students dies under highly suspicious circumstances, and he finds himself drawn into a chilling new case that reaches across the world.
Jack's investigations lead him to Adelaide where he identifies a cynical international crime consortium that preys on the anguish of childless couples and vulnerable women. Together with local major crime officers, he follows his leads to the windswept Yorke Peninsula, and becomes caught up in an intoxicating private drama.

With his personal and professional business entangled once again, Jack must put his own life on the line to bring justice to those who are grieving.

From the bestselling author of Mirror Man comes a heart-stopping new novel of greed and corruption that questions the price people are willing to pay for a human life.

I always enjoy Fiona McIntosh's books and this one didn't disappoint, but I did think that some of the coincidences stretched credulity. Also, I know that Jack is utterly irresistible and a great listener, but Jem baring her soul to him while he was still a virtual stranger, was rather unbelievable. Liked the twist towards the end - didn't see that one coming.

Enjoyable, but too many coincidences

Great to listen to Jack again, in the slightly husky tones of Jerome Pride. so easy to listen to. Fiona McIntosh takes her Detective superintendant Jack Hawksworth from London to South Australia on the hunt for a criminal group.
He works undercover, using his wit and charm to track them down. Absolutely loved visiting Adelaide and other SA places and history through his eyes.

Excellent story, didn't disappoint.

… read in this series. Thoroughly enjoying Jack Hawthorn’s character. One small observation tho for the author - it will quickly become tedious if Jack, who is an intelligent person, repeatedly has an ‘intimate relationship’ with the female protagonist. Just saying 😉
Narrator as previous, excellent.

Another great…
