Detective Mike Nash thought that moving back to Yorkshire from London would give him a quieter life. Little did he know....

How do you solve a crime when there's no evidence one has been committed?

Sarah Kelly goes for a night out at a club. She leaves around 2 a.m. No one sees her again.

Detective Mike Nash has nothing to go on, until a chance remark causes him to look deeper into other cases. Young women who have vanished without a trace.

Nash spots chilling similarities: no bodies, no witnesses, all disappearances explained away. He needs to find a solution and fast as two more women vanish, making it personal and potentially fatal. Both for Nash and for the women who have disappeared.

Can Nash stop a very peculiar serial killer? Discover a frantic, breathtaking mystery.

A crime thriller perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, JD Kirk, DS Butler, or Peter Robinson.

Serial killer stories are usually very formulaic. This one’s different - original unusual and realistic. Definitely worth it.

A great tale

Kitson’s writing is exceptional, his ability to craft an engaging, intricate story, at the top of the genre. At first, I found myself asking “haven’t I listened to this book before? Yet, barely in to chapter 2, I had concluded “oh. woah. this is entirely different from anything I’ve heard previously.” I fully enjoyed the story and recommend most highly.
Now I must confess the performance was a hindrance, until I found a solution. More specifically, the voice actor has the trait of infusing tremendous inflection and volume in the first few words of every sentence, then trailing off to an indistinguishable mumble. I am not hard of hearing, nor do I struggle with comprehension, JSYK. Ordinarily I would end the listening event and file the book in the YUCK collection of my audible library, where the mundane and hideous reside as a ready reference of what to avoid. However, as previously stated, Kitson has me entangled, so I tinkered around with the playback speed to see if I could diminish the vast difference between the start and end of every. Single. Sentence.
What worked for me: set playback to .90
Enjoy!

A truly disturbing premise.
Each character is finely developed and made very personal. The plot stays active and rises to a crescendo as the end nears. The plot twists are mind boggling and the red herrings shine. The whole thing is altogether too believable. A great and involving read.
John Lee is an amazing audio narrator/voice actor!

Too good
