Engaging read
The narrator draws you into what is a really good story. I will definitely be continuing with the series

Gripping!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, kept me gripped all the way through. Great Reading.
Quite intense, with plots, subplots, keeping the reader glued to the different story lines, hoping that the Heroine comes out in one piece.
just when you think you've solved the mystery it's takes you on another track.
Brilliant!

Enjoyable, but not as good as the previous books
It had the requisite mix of deceit, robbery, death and fraud to make it entertaining, but the overly frequent similes became irritating.
I don't know if Chloe Massey had been instructed to change her narration style, but this time round it was lacking in intonation, which detracted from the delivery of the story, with a couple of bizarre pronunciations. At least the awful Scouse accent remained consistent though.
It can't have been that bad, I've downloaded the next in the series.

Outdated tech detracts from decent story
Every bit of tech is described is great detail, seems to form a large part of the story for whatever reason. This issue with this is that the book was Originally written 20+ years ago so it’s hugely outdated, dial up internet, fax machines, cassette tapes!! The audio book was recorded in 2019 so I found this surprising. It did detract from the story for me

Not as good as the Tony Hill series
I have generally been disappointed with this series of books. The characters are very weak, and the storylines not very believable. Keep reading them in the hope they will get better. Narration is excellent

What fantastic narration
Loved this book mainly because the narrator was fantastic. I hope to find she has narrated more.

Love the narrator
I have been listening to this series of books, and love the narrator's voice, the main characters are interesting, and the love story between Kate and Richard amusing.
Although they were written a while ago, they are still fresh.

Great 90's nostaglia
Great story from the decade when "women can and will" didn't mean botox and silicon implates. That's one of reason why it puzzles me why so many female narrators sounds like the story is just boring the s*** out of them. It's so flat and unengaging read and it dosn't fit the story at all, witch is fast moving and even inclueds some level of action. So many femal narrators read like it's a boring manual for a dishwater or somthing similar. Get a grip, and lead us through the storys with more feeling and engagement!!!!
