About this listen

‘An immensely talented new author’ John Marrs

He’s watching. She’s waiting.

The unmissable new thriller from Darren O’Sullivan, author of Our Little Secret and Close Your Eyes.

Having barely escaped the clutches of a serial killer, Claire Moore has struggled to rebuild her life. After her terrifying encounter with the man the media dubbed The Black-Out Killer, she became an overnight celebrity: a symbol of hope and survival in the face of pure evil. And then the killings stopped.

Now ten years have passed, and Claire remains traumatised by her brush with death. Though she has a loving and supportive family around her, what happened that night continues to haunt her still.

Just when things are starting to improve, there is a power cut; a house fire; another victim found killed in the same way as before.

The Black-Out Killer is back. And he’s coming for Claire…

This is a well read audioBook, both narrators made the book come to life. The touch of menace in the voice of Darren O'Sullivan made the killer really believable. Then the slight sound of vulnerability from a young woman trying to rebuild her life after ten years of being afraid of the darkness
was fantastic.

Fantastic audiobook
