About this listen

From the number one international best-selling author of Holy Island and Dark Skies.

Ryan's most explosive case yet...

It's been five months since a killer walked free, and DCI Ryan is preparing to leave Newcastle to hunt him down - this time for good.

But Ryan's plans are scuppered when events take a dramatic turn and he is forced to stay and face his past one last time or watch a friend suffer the consequences.

Amid the chaos, another killer is preparing to strike. When the Tyne Bridge explodes, Ryan's team are faced with a frantic race to uncover a deadly foe who won't stop until every bridge is burned, along with everybody on it....

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

LJ Ross doesn't just have a genuine talent for writing. She takes mysteries full of suspense, multiple plot threads, makes us fall in love with and feel the joy, laughter and pain of her characters and intersects these into artworks of modern crime fiction.

In Seven Bridges, there isn't just a criminal challenge that had me devouring every word to find out what happened next. There is an extremely insightful, touching and ultimately tragic exploration of human error, cruelty and those temptations and bad choices that fracture friendships. One of my favourite novels in one of my favourite series!

One of the Best Stories Yet!

Love the stories but getting tired of hearing in every book serval times over how tall and good looking DCI Ryan is. It’s cringe:/

We get it! He is handsome!

The diction is perfect. The multi-cast delivery is one of the best. I highly recommend this read.
