Publisher's Summary

Winner of the Ned Kelly Award for Best Debut.

The killer is in sight, but who is behind you?

Homicide detective Frank Bennett feels like the luckiest man on the force when he meets his new partner, the dark and beautiful Eden Archer. But there’s something strange about Eden and her brother, Eric. Something he can’t quite put his finger on.

At first, as they race to catch a very different kind of serial killer, his partner’s sharp instincts come in handy. But soon Frank’s wondering if she’s as dangerous as the man they hunt.

Worth the money

An engaging story line and excellent narrator. One of the best narrators I’ve heard. Definitely worth buying.

Deserving of the accolades

Enjoy the way Candice Fox writes. Descriptions are spot on without being pretentiously verbose and Lani John Tupu‘s narration is outstanding!

I am loving Candice and Lani

This is the fifth book I’ve listen to that Candice has either written or co-authored and I am loving her work. I don’t have any flash works to critique her work, other than Candice writes a fabulous story that flows well and is compelling.
I have listened to a few books narrated by Lani (most of those are Candice’s books) and I find he is the perfect match for Candice’s books.
On to the next one now...🙃

Underdone in every way.

Half-baked noir. Almost every proposition requires a massive leap of faith and logic. The characters are undeveloped and the crimes are brutish and - again - half-explained. It's well read and the story is interesting enough to keep you listening - just. The real issue is that nothing is even remotely believable and the relationships and motivations are insufficiently unpacked to make the people we're supposed to care about rise from the page. I understand I'm in the minority here, but this was a disappointment.

So good! Beginning of a series

Two kids survive when their rich family are murdered. Guess what they do with that childhood trauma, fear, and growing inner darkness?

Can't wait to see what Eden the cop and her partner do next. Such a great concept. Next book Eden and I've just downloaded it.

Great story & riveting narrater

Candice Fox is an excellent story teller and this entire series is thoroughly enjoyable. Lani John Tupu brings the story to life with his exciting narration and resonate voice.

A tour de force

Very hard to believe this is a debut novel - absolutely fabulous, and can't wait to 'read' the next one of hers. Superbly narrated / performed by Lani John Tupu as well
