About this audiobook
David Botham just wants a quiet ordinary life—his job at the travel agency, his relationship with his girlfriend Stephanie. The online blog that uses a title he once thought up has nothing to do with him. He has no idea who is writing it or where they get their information about a series of violent deaths in Liverpool. If they’re murders, how can the killer go unseen even by security cameras? Perhaps David won’t know until they come too close to him—until he can’t ignore the figure from his past that is catching up with him…

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5DNF. The narrator killed a potentially good novel, for me. I listen to audiobooks to keep me awake while driving, and the thriller/horror/suspense aspect is a major help in that regard, too. Although this book is probably a great read in actual book form, I couldn't keep going because the narrator literally was pulling me to sleep, regardless of the topic at hand. So, probably a good read, and definitely a good narrator, but a terrible combination.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Protagonist is a nebbish who is constantly put-upon by most people he knows and/or interacts with. Fantastic accounts of the vicious deaths of people resembling his tormenters start showing up on a blog, and he starts to worry that he might be somehow responsible. Every person in the book communicated in the same passive-aggressive, “what did you think I meant, then?” repetitive style. Not for me.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The idea behind this novel is certainly an interesting one. It's not a comfortable read and reflects the modern reality of online nastiness.What I think stopped me from enjoying the book more was the dialogue. Everyone seemed to constantly talk in circles, only saying part of what they meant or misunderstanding each other. It made it hard to follow and frustrating to get through in parts. It does have a role with the main character but it spread to most of the others too.Many thanks to Flame Tree Press for the ARC.
