About this listen

She played with fire. Then she got burned.

DCI Sean Bracken is about to buy a house, his ex-wife is talking about getting married, and his father drops a bombshell. He has very little time to get involved with solving a murder, but that's what is thrown into his lap.

A young woman found beaten and burned in an old building will be taking up Bracken's every waking minute. He has seen victims like this before, battered almost beyond recognition, a crime that is more than personal.

With the crime taking priority, it leaves time for little else and takes Bracken into a world he knew existed but hadn't navigated before.

Along with his team, Bracken will need to tread carefully. There's a killer watching his every move, somebody very clever, and very deadly....

But it was a far cry from the others. A lot of side steps but no paths really connected and too many new characters without any connection or any development to look forward to. The humour was still there but the story didn’t know where it started or ended or where to go. Must be difficult to keep up the same excitement for each part of a series and sometimes they have to run their course but this seemed a half hearted throw of ideas and see what sticks or maybe it’s just not a good idea to read a series from start to front in a short time. If it wasn’t for Angus King I’d given up half way through and that doesn’t happen often. Would I read another story in this series? Not sure it’d have to be a very convincing story to bring this back to life for me.

Not sure how to rate this
