About this listen

 Candice Fox has been described by the Sydney Morning Herald as 'one of Australia’s finest new gen crime writers' and her latest novel is another thrilling ride, as a mass prison breakout lets loose 650 of the country's most dangerous prisoners.

‘Are you listening, Warden?’
‘What do you want?’
‘I want you to let them out.’
‘Which inmates are we talking about?’
‘All of them.’

When 650 of the world’s most violent human beings pour out from Pronghorn Correctional Facility into the Nevada Desert, the biggest manhunt in US history begins.

But for John Kradle this is his one chance to prove his innocence, twenty-six years after the murder of his wife and child.

He just needs to stay one step ahead of the teams of law enforcement officers he knows will be chasing the escapees down.

Death Row Supervisor turned fugitive-hunter Celine Osbourne is single-minded in her mission to catch Kradle. She has very personal reasons for hating him - and she knows exactly where he’s heading . . .©2021 Candice Fox (P)2021 Penguin Random House Australia Crime Crime Thrillers Psychological Suspense Thriller Thriller & Suspense Fiction Exciting

This book kept my interest from the very beginning till the end. The split narration was an added bonus.

Enthralling

This gender is my thing but sadly this book felt like a late season of a long running procedural, eg Bones, which had ran out of fresh ideas on the verge of cancelation. It was ok but very bland and very telegraphed. There were no twists.

Reads like a cancelled tv show 7 seasons in

I'm only a few chapters in but the woman's narration is driving me crazy, will abandon audiobook and buy hardcopy because I love this author's books but can't listen to a voice which sounds computor generated

monotone robotic narration

What I love most about Candice Fox novels is the thrill of her amazing mind. She is so creative and inventive in the crimes she conceives and the way her professional and spontaneous detectives solve them. Every character from the monstrously evil to the noble innocents who rise above their cruel fates is animated by her warmth and humanity.

Exciting, inventive, humane

A prison is emptied due to a terrorist threat, and the prisoners all need to be rounded up. There are so many threads in this story. Who, how, why and it all kept me guessing. Quite fun. Highly recommended.

Thriller

Fantastically performed . The story was very unique with multiple players having different roles. It’s nice to see good win over evil.

So many twists

Can’t understand some of the moaning about the narration. I enjoyed every aspect of the audiobook from start to finish, especially the narration. Having the 2 narrators tell the story adds a nice bit of colour to the listening experience. Can’t recommend the author highly enough - great original story, great character development, great writing

Another great story from the author

It was a great, albeit brief (clearly it was over too quickly!), story. Good narration and very enjoyable overall.

Unique Story Line. Loved it.
