About this listen

A naked woman in red high-heeled shoes is perched on the edge of Clifton Suspension Bridge with her back pressed to the safety fence, weeping into a mobile phone. Clinical psychologist Joseph O'Loughlin is only feet away, desperately trying to talk her down. She whispers, 'you don't understand,' and jumps.

Later, Joe has a visitor - the woman's teenage daughter, a runaway from boarding school. She refuses to believe that her mother would have jumped off the bridge - not only would she not commit suicide, she is terrified of heights.

Joe wants to believe her, but what would drive a woman to such a desperate act? Whose voice? What evil?

The tension is almost constant in this gripping thriller. This is not only in terms of the plot but also in the relationships between the characters - whether it be Joe and his wife or Joe and the killer he chases. When things get a little too close to home, we see Joe at his best and his worst as he is forced to set aside the mantle of advisor, finding himself a player in the play. A great book from a consistently great author.

White knuckle reading

Really enjoyed this book, my first with the lead Joe O’Loughlan. Was very engaging from the start and gripping until the end. Initially I didn’t really find the narrator easy to listen too but I really warmed to him.

Loved it from the start

Outstanding story

Couldn’t stop reading - I was captured from the beginning- highly recommend- only fault was I found it almost impossible to tell the difference between two of the main characters, had to keep rewinding to work out who was speaking.

Gripping !
