Would make a great film
Full of twists and turns. I liked how it was mainly written from the criminal perspective.

Different but very good
Two top narrators made for enjoyable listening experience.
The story totally floored me at first. It is not often the villain takes the first person role. However, it worked well and the story gripped.

Another fast paced, page turning rocket ride story
Simon Kernick has set his own bar high, through his back catalogue, so I am always apprehensive he can keep it up.
He did, this was another fast paced page turner brought to life with great performances from Paul Thornley and Olivia Darnley.
There is no tired format with these books, you never know where they are going, or where the twists and turns take you, with the never one-dimensional characters.
