Publisher's Summary

The Shadow Man is the first standalone from the bestselling author of the Perfect series, Helen Fields.

Includes a short story, exclusive to the audiobook.

He collects his victims. But he doesn’t keep them safe.

Elspeth, Meggy and Xavier are locked in a flat. They don’t know where they are, and they don’t know why they’re there. They only know that the shadow man has taken them, and he won’t let them go.

Desperate to escape, the three of them must find a way out of their living hell, even if it means uncovering a very dark truth. 

Because the shadow man isn’t a nightmare. He’s all too real.

And he’s watching. 

Helen Fields is back with a heart-pounding new book, perfect for fans of Cara Hunter and Stuart MacBride.

"A pulse-pounding, fascinating psychological procedural." (Louise Mullins)

"Helen Fields knows it out of the park with The Shadow Man. From the creep-you-out opening to the last staggering page, this one just refuses to let go. Simply brilliant." (Neil Broadfoot)

Well paced storyline.

I enjoyed being drawn along at a good pace by the twists and turns of the story and interesting characters.
I did find the performance of the American accent used for Connie a bit fake when her character was introduced however it improved a lot over the course of the story to be quite enjoyable.
