About this listen
This town...there's an evil here...
In a town where the people are colder than the weather, and the situation is crazier and more mysterious than anyone can possibly imagine, Chicago police officer Christian Hawk decides to take on the challenge of unravelling three months’ worth of strange disappearances.
Opting to escape and fall into his work after a personal tragedy, officer Hawk ventures into the cold, desolate town of Holberg, Norway to attempt to uncover why multiple people have gone missing, with no obvious traces left behind except strange markings.
This is his diary, these are his entries.
His nightmare is only just beginning…

A good short book
A well written book book with a good twist, I found the narrator a little slow slow, but adding more speed solved the problem
Would highly recommend

Where do I start?
The narrator was great, excellent choice for this audiobook. I’d certainly like to listen to him narrate other books in the future.
For the most part, I liked the story and felt like I could see what was going on in my head like I was watching everything unfold, the narrators voice certainly helped with this. There were a few bits that were a little confusing and when the end came I was sat wondering what the…? for a bit while everything settled.
I’d certainly got some of the story correct from bits throughout, but there were a few plot twists that I definitely could not have seen coming!
Overall a good listen, but I still have some questions that the end just didn’t seem to tie up? Especially about the receptionist lady!
I received a voucher for the audiobook from the author, but the review here contains my own thoughts after listening to the audiobook.

Keeps you guessing!
This short thriller has a few twists and turns that I didn't see coming!
The main character, Hawk, is a Chicago police detective who has recently lost his wife and is given the opportunity to go to Norway to help local police investigate the mysterious disappearances of multiple people over a few months.
I dont want to leave spoilers so sorry ifits vague but at least three times I thought I had figured out what was going on and the direction it was going in and was proven wrong each time! The ending threw me for a loop and had me questioning everything I'd just read, so much that I had to register to the last couple of chapters!
The narration was well executed - kudos for the Norwegian pronunciations!
Overall an enjoyable short read!

very surpriding
This started off as an Anerican detective story but turned into something completely different. not my usual kind of listen but I actually really enjoyed it it leads you down a route of a little bit of sci-fi and government cover up with a sad back story following side by side. nicely done.

Atmosphere and Engrossing
This Audiobook is a great example of the perfect marriage of author and narrator styles, they compliment each other so wonderfully and it makes for a wonderful audiobook experience. The author has a wonderful writing style that just flows and maximises the sentences perfectly, painting a vivid tapestry in your mind and the the narrator I could listen to all day such is his captivating and comforting voice. The story reminded me of an old school noir and had it not been for some of the references to modern tech, it would have been easy to imagine it set in the times of the classic pulp detective stories. The story itself goes into an interesting direction which I won't spoil, yet doesn't feel forced l which is often a trap many authors fall into when attempting ambitious twists. Lee Cooper is a great discovery and one who I hope finds a wide audience as his writing style is a genuine joy, and I am also keen to hear more from this narrator.
