About this listen

The #1 Audible bestseller from the author of The Stone Man (shortlisted for the Audible Audiobook of the Year Award 2015)

There are hangovers, there are bad hangovers, and then there's waking up inside someone else's head. Thirty-something bartender Charlie Wilkes is faced with this dilemma when he wakes up to find himself trapped inside The Black Room - a space consisting of impenetrable darkness and a huge, ethereal screen floating in its center. It is through this screen that he sees the world of his female host, Minnie.

How did he get there? What has happened to his life? And how can he exist inside the mind of a troubled, fragile, but beautiful woman with secrets of her own? Uncertain whether he's even real or if he's just a figment of his host's imagination, Charlie must enlist Minnie's help if he is to find a way out of The Black Room, where the light of the screen goes out every time Minnie closes her eyes….

In The Darkness, That's Where I'll Know You tells the complete story of The Black Room, parts one to four. It contains all of the adventures of Charlie and Minnie, guaranteed to keep the listener on the edge of his or her seat.

If you're anything like me and get a little fed up with the same sort of stories and want to experience a very different refreshing concept, still with gripping drama, lots of mystery and want to go on a different kind of journey then there really is no need to be still reading this. What are you waiting for ?. Best credit i have spent in a very long time. (Apart from The Stone Man) Off to purchase the rest of this authors books.

This needs to be a Movie (Totally original)

Loved this book. Different from anything I have read before. Loved the characters and cared for them. Loved the narration too. I have also read the stone man by the same author and would recommend that book too. The two stories are very different and unlike anything I have previously read.

Something different from the same old same old

Never been so gripped by a story as much as this one! As you listen to the audio book you think you've Sussed what's happening and then Smitherd hits you with several twists! Prepare yourself for a lengthy listen to this as you are not goingt to want to have a break! Good work from the author both written and spoken.

This just gets better and better!

I really enjoyed this - I found it after reading The Stone Man and am very glad I did.

The concept is quite original and is well developed. The characters are very likable and interesting. It is an easy listen but moves at a good pace with plenty of humor and suspense. Luke Smitherd did an excellent job with the narration, which is rare with author read books.

The only thing I think is that I feel it could have made a longer series. I would have liked to hear more about each of the characters back stories. In addition I would love to read more tales of alternate versions of Mini and Charlie.

Loved it - wish there were more !

Loved this book, I listen while I work and this book had me gripped. I found myself avoiding various tasks in order not to have to turn the book off! The author reads this himself and it's good and it works for the book. I really felt I was in there with Charlie trying to figure it all out.

Original and Addictive!
