Publisher's Summary

Hell has unleashed a demon - and he's coming for you....

Detective Chief Inspector Ryan's worst nightmare has just become a reality. Notorious serial killer The Hacker has escaped prison and kidnapped one of his best detectives from her own home. His brutality is the stuff of legend - Ryan lost his sister and nearly his own life bringing the man to justice first time around. Can Ryan do it again to save his friend?

There's a nationwide manhunt underway but the trail has gone cold and fear spreads like a virus. Ryan and his team must find The Hacker before he takes another life - but are they too late?

The clock is ticking....

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

Very enjoyable, great narrator

While I really did enjoy the story, it took me a while to get through the middle part of the story. I found the middle of the story a bit challenging because of the storyline was a mix a being predictable at times but also but complex at other times. I moved on to another book for a month and then came back to it. Once I got over that, the remainder went by very quickly and was very enjoyable. Jonathan Keeble has become one of my favourite narrators, because of his capability to voice male or female voices in the various different British regional accents so well.

Predictable

As my review title says, predictable. Still, it managed to kill a few hours of the day!

Enough content for half a book.

Loved the book but as a consumer feel it was a money making exercise. This and the previous book should have been one whole book, not split in halfs
