About this listen

Beneath the Skin is a gripping psychological thriller by the Top Ten best-selling author, Nicci French.

Zoe, Jennifer and Nadia are three women with nothing in common. Except for the man who wants to kill them. He sends them terrifying letters, full of the intimate details of their lives - and promises that he will bring those lives to a violent, horrible end. But not before he has enjoyed himself.

Invisible and apparently unstoppable, he delights in watching the women suffer, thrilled by his power to leave them utterly helpless, alone in their terror and confusion. Except they're not all as helpless as he thinks . . .

Amazing!

This book is so well-written inasmuch as the characterization of the three women is believable and convincing. The build-up of tension was tingling and the outcome was completely unpredictable.....I had to “blitz” listen to the last few chapters!!

Amazing

Unexpected and brilliant. Not your normal psychological thriller. Would have liked a bit more of the twist, but fantastic nevertheless

Decent thriller

Enjoyed this - told from the victims' point of view in 3 separate but linked stories. Narration was good with decent accents so it was always clear who was "speaking".
I was a bit disappointed with the ending - if kind of fizzled out with a pop rather than a bang - there were 12 minutes left of the audiobook and I had my fingers crossed for a final twist - but instead got an oh-well-there-you-go narrative from one of the main female characters.
Would recommend though aside from that.

Excellent

Having listened to one of the Frieda Klein books and not got on with it I started this one nog expecting to enjoy it but I was wrong. The story was chilling and gripping. The narrator was very good at bringing out the personalities of the three main characters . So I’ll go back and listen again to I’ll give ‘The Day of the Dead’ another go…..

Hooked!

Absolutely loved it. Three stories that link together in the most amazing way what a master of mystery Nicci French is. Off to download another.
