About this listen

Book 2 in the DI Westphall series.

The body of a young boy is discovered at the bottom of a well that has been sealed for 200 years.

Yet the corpse is only days old....

Soon, similarities from an old crime emerge, and DI Ben Westphall must look to the past to piece together the dark and twisted events taking place in the present.

This is the worst book I have ever heard. Very confusing and unbelievable. Just utter rubbish.

Utter Rubbish

I didn’t like the first book story but I thought that I would try the second book as I really like this narrator. Unfortunately I had to stop listening less than half way through, it was hours and hours and going nowhere, didn’t like any of the characters, they have no personalities. That’s all I can say really, not helpful, just personal choice

Just couldn’t get into it
