About this listen

For some, ghosts are no more than the wounds loved ones leave in their wake, haunting the living only with their absence. Others take a more literal view....

Kate Bennett, presenter of paranormal investigation cable TV show, Where the Dead Walk, isn't sure what she believes, other than she seems cursed to lose all those closest to her.

After investigating a neglected cliff-top house, empty for a decade because it's "haunted", Kate is convinced a spirit within holds the answers to a childhood she can't remember and an unimaginable crime.

What she can't know is that the house's owner, Sebastian Dahl, is searching for something too, and he intends to get it, whatever the cost.

A thoroughly entertaining story.

I’ve read and loved this book quite a while ago but have just gone for a second encounter via the audio version.
I enjoyed Helen Clapp’s narration but had pictured the narrator as male when I read it the first time round - no worries, it worked both ways!
It’s just such good fun, especially when you know the tv show this is loosely based on - great characters, skilful writing, plenty of underlying humour, a cosy murder mystery feel and a dash of supernatural - perfect mix.
I have a particular soft spot for a couple of the side characters (Eamonn the Medium is a fabulous creation to name but one) and am doubly pleased that they reappear in the second instalment.

Love this series!

John Bowen is a new to me author, and the Where the Dead Walk had me captivated. This book is centered around some paranormal investigators. There are so many twists, unexpected events, some harsh elements, and some chills. Helen Clapp was brilliant performing this book. She kept me entranced with what was happening. Her speed of narration was perfect for the book. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I will most definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

Captivating Listen!

The story was interesting enough, although it felt like a few others that are written in this theme. It was well written and held the interest and the characters were well built and believable.

The narration however was dreadful. I listen to audiobooks all this time and this is without doubt the worst narrated story I had listened to. It felt rushed, with no inflection, difference of tone, significant breaks, dramatic effect, nothing to actually feel any difference to any scene or chapter. The narrator did not help capture characters or ambience for a scene or anything. Simply awful.

Good story, bad narration.

I'm half way through the book. I really like the Narration there's subtle changes in the characterisation which moves the story forward.
I'm invested in the characters but have found that I have to slow down the speed of narration. It's fine at times and then speeds up again.
I usually listen to audible books over many chapters but have found with this book take more breaks from listening.
If Helen could pause a little more and give the story time to breath I think it would be a wonderful listen.

Brilliant story, slightly rushed

Having won Where The Dead Walk on The book Club auction I couldn't wait to get started with it and I wasn't at all disappointed. This is my first read by John Bowen and most definitely won't be my last. I actually listened to the Audio of this book and I enjoyed it that much I couldn't wait to drive to work it definitely made my long Journey to work more enjoyable. This is one hell of a supernatural thriller which has a very unique story line. Being a fan of the Most Hunted TV show this book is right up my street.

Where The Dead Walks is a paranormal investigation cable TV show which Kate Bennett is presenter for and believe it not or she is very skeptical until a investigation at neglected cliff-top house, empty for a decade because it's "haunted", Kate is left convinced a spirit within holds the answers to a childhood she can't remember and an unimaginable crime. Can Harry her co presenter partner help Kate unravel the truth? The story takes a surprising dark turn when Sebastian Dahl the house owner is searching for something to.
I loved the characters in this story Harry has got a soft spot for Kate and make a great team. And would love to see more of them in the future maybe?!

Well what can I say I was totally hooked to the point where I was listening to this any moment I got because I absolutely loved it. John takes you on a journey dropping out snippets leaving me wanting more and left me totally flabbergasted that this is his debut novel. This is a corker of a read John's well crafted writing skills made me feel like he has been writing for years. with the mystery and suspense I was totally addicted and built up to a fantastic ending where everything comes together.

This is a must read for all Paranormal fans that love a well written good ghost story like myself. that will keep you wanting more until the end. This is one of those books that will stay with me forever. I cannot recommend it enough, this is a massive five stars from me and will be in my favorite books for 2016.

A must read for paranormal fans

the story could have been a lot better. the story felt rushed with very little interesting narration. it felt like she was spead reading in order to get home. nah, will be staying away from anything else she narrates. totally spoilt the story infact I only got half Way through and couldn't bare to listen to her anymore. sorry John Bowen.

no couldn't get into it.

Didn't find the narration a problem, although if you do find it running a bit fast for you you can slow it down using the speed button. I liked the characters and the story and will listen to it again.
