About this listen

Five footprints are the only sign that Daniel Buck was ever here. And now they are all his mother has left.

Every day Anna Buck guards the little prints in the cement. Polishing them to a shine. Keeping them safe. Spiralling towards insanity. When a psychic offers hope, Anna grasps it. Who wouldn't? Maybe he can tell her what happened to her son....

But is this man what he claims to be? Is he a visionary? A shut eye? Or a cruel fake preying on the vulnerable? Or is he something far, far worse?

After enjoying Rubberneckers I was looking forward to Shut Eye and I wasn't disappointed. Fast paced and compelling throughout with few surprises along the way. Again a terrific narration by A.D. Would recommend.

Another hit.

I have read lots of this authors books now and enjoyed every one of them. always well written and clever storylines. Had this on audible whilst working and was hooked straight away. Andrew Wincott is easy on the ear and i enjoyed his crystal clear tones, perfect timing and character portrayals very much, but of course he is a pro. Wish all narrators could be so good. can't wait for my next B Bauer book.

I can’t speak highly enough of this book - the plot, the characterisation and the extraordinary skill of Belinda Bauer as a writer. It is original, moving and exciting.
The audio version is also beautifully read. Wish I could give it all 100 stars

An extraordinary story

The audio equivalent of unputdownable
Creepy intriguing, moving sometimes funny with a cracking detective, trying to hide a heart not totally made of ice

Brilliant

Great story, lots of little details along the way to make you smile, despite the grim subject matter. Lovely rounded characters too, and realistic conversations. I’ve listened to all of Bauer’s novels multiple times and grumpy old Marvell is definitely a favourite.

I love Belinda Bauer!
