Robin Ballantyne's life is finally coming together. After learning she was pregnant with twins and being abandoned by her irresponsible boyfriend, Adam, she's settling into life as a single mother. But one night, after putting the children to bed, she hears an argument and suddenly, a body falls past her window. Running outside, she finds the body of Paula Carmichael, a renowned activist. When the police find Robin's name in Paula's diary and a connection through ex-boyfriend Adam, Robin becomes the prime suspect. She must figure out who killed Paula before she loses her freedom, her children, and her life.©2004 Catherine Sampson (P)2004 Blackstone Audiobooks Women Sleuths Mystery

I enjoyed getting to know this group of characters and the mystery was strong enough that I didn't know "who dunnit" until it just before the big reveal. I enjoyed it so much I immediately bought the second in the series and look forward to more. I'd compare it to those strong, modern BBCA mystery series on TV, well worth the listen.

A good start to a series

I was at first a little put off by the narrator and the slow pace; it's so different from the series that I've been listening to lately. Like one of the other reviewers, I was soon pulled into the story. I'm now looking forward to reading the second in the series to see how Robin progresses as a working mother, daughter, friend, and lover.

Pleasantly Surprised

Good narrator, good plot, interesting characters. Definitely held my interest. Robin is one unlucky woman, wrong place, wrong time but how can she convince get to the truth? I will read or listen to other books by this author.

Sampson's stellar debut of single mother of twins, Londoner Robin Ballantyne, is instantly compelling. Told in first person narrative, Reading's performance is spot-on; all of the characters were fully developed and believable. My next listen is Sampson's Out of Mind; and I can hardly wait for book three to be released, The Slaughter Pavilion. Very well done indeed.

A wonderful debut mystery
