About this listen

Eighteen mutilated women in a Shanghai mass grave. But this is only the beginning of a horrific case for Investigator Li Yan and Mei Ling, head of Shanghai's serious crime squad. Ling is a formidable woman, and she appears to threaten Li Yan's relationship with pathologist Margaret Campbell. But when Campbell discovers that the victims were subjected to live autopsies, she knows she'll need all the help she can get.

The Killing Room is the third in the acclaimed China series from Peter May, author of Runaway, Entry Island and the internationally best-selling Lewis Trilogy.

This series, this author, this narrator, all are the best I have encountered. Really great stories, with not a single element missing. Never a dull moment, intelligently and artfully written. Nothing more to say.

A story that is well paced - Peter May’s books are well suited to audio books. Good entertainment and the narrator is excellent but I think more suited to English narratives.

Another gripping story
