      Absolutely love the unorthodox finale where Helen Fields dies the unthinkable. Absolutely awesome
    • 4/5
      I enjoy Field's (audio)books. The male narrator is wonderful. The female, however, is unconvincing. Too emphatic, unsubtle, more like a children's story teller, the bad guy a monster, the American with a very fake accent.
    • 5/5
      Wow what a gripping storyline! I could imagine everything, so well written and narrated.
      Short story was a bonus as I realised how much I was missing Ava & Callanach *sigh*
    • 5/5
      I loved this audio book! I found myself not wanting to stop listening!
