Summary

When a nine-year-old boy is left to die inside a burning car on a sink estate in Peckham, DCI David Rosen is drafted in to investigate. The young boy has been severely burned, and is now fighting for his life. As Rosen and his team begin to scour the crime scene for forensic evidence, they discover something chilling; a graffiti image of a sinister eye, drawn in exquisite detail above the site of the wreckage - and behind it, a series of mysterious markings, etched into the wall. Could the markings represent a secret code left by the killer - a code that will hold the key to the investigation?

Engrossing!

Loved this book and although when I first started to listen to the narrator I wasn't sure he would be suitable I was proved wrong!
The story had a good pace, the voices of the characters were well read and kept me interested throughout.
I haven't read any of this author's work before but I shall seek him out in the future!

What she saw

Absolutely brilliant, nail biting to the end. If you need a good story this is it.

I couldn't stop listening

What about Joe Jameson’s performance did you like?

Joe was a great narrator, his voices and way of telling the story helped keep me addicted.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This book kept me hooked from start to finish, Mark Roberts has a fantastic way of hooking the reader/listener in and engaging them through the whole of his stories.
This was no different, and I found myself turning off the TV and listening to this instead, rather than just in the car as usual.

Good but.........

I quite enjoyed this book however I wasn't bowled over by the Narrator.
Most of the voices he attempted were really over the top, in so much as the inflection was too exaggerated . The main character seemed to almost shout every sentence, children were presented as if they were all 6 yrs old, regardless of their true age. And some of the voices of the fringe characters were just not believable . Unfortunately this spoiled a good book for me.

Disappointed

I really liked the previous one in this series which caused me to seek this out but I found the storyline lacked credibility this time.

rise and a fall

Took a while to get into the story and after a few chapters I was hooked and it had my mind racing and trying to guess who was behind it all. That was until the unravelling and all I could do was laugh. It just did not work at all. A ten year old capable of all that! With my psychological background it seemed a little farfetched.
Fan of Joe Jameson, not so much the author.

One of the worst books I have listened too.

What would have made What She Saw better?

Narration was poor

Would you ever listen to anything by Mark Roberts again?

No

What didn’t you like about Joe Jameson’s performance?

ordinary

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from What She Saw?

A warning about violent child sexual activities

Any additional comments?

I have no doubt that a lot of research would have been done, sorry but I just did not like it.

Any additional comments?

SPOILER ALERT!Unecessary torture and violence and it just plain DIDNT MAKE SENSE and was downright physically impossible, how the HELL does a nine year old girl overpower a grown man? even a strong nine year old even in a sneak attack? even if she had a knife?, HIGHLY UNLIKELY and thats being kind.
