About this listen

A thrilling lesbian mystery about trying to right a past wrong...despite the consequences.

Detective Constable Kate Wolfe is sent to a Cheshire backwater after falling foul of a disciplinary hearing in London. But before she even has a chance to settle in, Kate finds herself in a situation from which there's no coming back. She's reported as a troublemaker to her new boss, Detective Chief Inspector Helen Taylor, a no-nonsense veteran who once had an esteemed, high-profile career.

The pair investigates a spate of arson attacks, a dead body found in a burnt-out building, and a missing architect while fighting their growing attraction for each other. The discovery of a dumped vehicle in a quarry lake sparks a series of events that will change their lives forever.

Contains mature themes.

The story line was enjoyably different with a good twist, however the narrator took away any enjoyment to the characters. She was way to harsh sounding and any emotional part in the book was completely lost in the sharpness of her voice, leaving both characters sounding cold.

Wrong narrator !

Good story with enough details and good cadence in reading. Characters were well developed as the storyline unfolded.

Great twist

The story itself is generally written well. However despite really trying to stick with this, the narrators voice and approach to the characters and their dialogue was awkward, stiff and monotone in parts at quite a grating tone. I ended up just reading it myself and enjoyed this novel much more.

Better to read yourself. Narration detracts from the story!
