About this listen

Based on the bestselling Audible Original by Anthony Khaseria, THE RATCATCHER is a thrilling police drama for fans of Joy Ellis and Michael Wood.

It's been twelve weeks since Dresden Commissioner Paula Beyer was sent to the small town of Freidorf to investigate the disappearance of several teenagers. Now she is sitting opposite a psychologist who is tasked with figuring out whether Paula's statements about the case are true, or whether she needs to be suspended until further notice. While Paula believes that the young people were kidnapped by someone mimicking the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin, her colleagues believe that Paula is indulging in a fantasy and endangering the investigation.

If Paula wants to stop the perpetrator, she has to convince the psychologist of her version of the story. But the longer the conversation goes on, the more Paula doubts herself…

Fantastic

Very clever storyline, loads of twists and turns. Ended rather abruptly, I was left feeling there should be more to completely finish
it off. Would have given 5 stars except for one major flaw, Elizabeth had her hands tied behind her back so she couldn’t crawl
through the woods, maybe shuffled along on her knees. Hope there will be a follow up .
Absolutely loved the format, like listening to a play.

Brilliant
