About this listen

 The first woman had her lungs ripped out. When the same gruesome ritualistic method was used again, it was clear that the same killer was responsible. But there is no precise evidence to link the two cases, except for a tantalising email.

Kriminalhauptkommissar Jan Fabel (half-Scottish, half-German) is a man of conscience and imagination. In his desperate attempt to solve the case before more victims are discovered, he gradually uncovers layer upon layer of intrigue. How can he track a murderer who leaves no trail, whose victims seem purposefully random and whose motive reaches far beyond greed and lust, into the darkest recesses of the human soul?

My first but definately not my last Craig Russel. Had me gripped from beginning to end. Every character in the story comes to life.

Hooked

I have read quite a few of Craig Russell's crime thrillers based in Glasgow and thoroughly enjoyed them so I thought I'd give this a go particularly as it is read by one of my top narrators Sean Barrett.
The story is based in Hamburg, Germany where several woman have fallen victim to a particularly vicious serial killer. The detective leading the case is half Scottish Jan Fabel and his team.
I found the German slightly tedious at times but I quite enjoyed the story I think there must be a sequel to this as it ends quite suddenly and all the ends are not all tied.

German crime thriller
