About this listen

They are picture-perfect. A young, happy family sat around the kitchen table. But no one moves as wisps of smoke filter into the room and the house becomes a burning grave around them....

When reports come in of a family trapped in a burning house, Detective Morgan Brookes rushes to the scene. But as soon as she enters the ruined home, she is devastated by what she finds. Tied to the kitchen table, Sally and David Lawson and their young son had no chance of escaping the flames and the smoke....

Neighbors all agree the Lawsons were the perfect family, and CCTV shows nothing suspicious. Morgan’s only clue is the silver crucifix necklace around Sally’s neck. Because according to friends, she wasn’t religious. Was someone passing divine judgement on this mother and her family?

Focusing on Sally’s last steps, Morgan gets the breakthrough she needs–just days ago Sally had confided in a friend that she felt someone was watching her. And when Morgan finds photos of Sally on her neighbor Luke’s phone, all the pieces slot together.

Only then another local woman reports feeling watched. Nothing seems to link her to Luke, but Morgan can’t ignore it. Could the killer still be out there? Going deeper into Sally’s past and uncovering the killer’s motivations is her only chance to save more innocent lives, but can she solve the twisted puzzle in time?

A completely addictive and gripping crime thriller! Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Robert Dugoni, and Rachel Caine.

Book 8

Another page turner in this great detective series.

i very much injoyed listening to this one, it kept me guessing all the way through.

Not only a great who done it, it continues to explore the teams relationships as well as the growing romance between Morgan & Ben.
The only slight critisism i have is that i didin't see the point in the 'hocus pocus' part of the novel, it wasn't needed and didn't add anything to the storyline.

Mor please!!

Story ok but not too exciting, I didn’t find myself looking forward to getting back to it I’m afraid.

I didn’t like the narrator’s voice .I’m afraid I found it very annoying , but that’s just me.

Just ridiculous

It's ridiculous how they fail to develop any of the other characters in the story besides Morgan, and it's obnoxious that she is nearly killed and injured in every single story. Honestly, there's no way she could get that many head injuries without sustaining permanent damage.

Ruined by narration

This is the first book I have had by this author and sadly it was ruined by the utterly awful narration. The story is one of horror and yet the narrator read it all with a sing-song tone to her voice, laughing where laughing was not warranted making it seem the police officers and other characters were not horrified by the act. All the female characters had this high pitch voice.....why?
I am guessing this narrator has previously done childrens books where you have to keep your tone up. This was inappropriate in this case. If I find any other of Helens books are narrated by someone else, I may give it a go as it was a good plot and story.

Ok but wouldn’t recommend

This book had an okay plot/storyline but was let down by how unrealistic characters were.
