He considers himself an artist…. 

His medium is murder. Someone is killing young women, strangling them in their beds, and arranging their bodies in a certain way after death. The police have no witnesses and the killer has left no clues. When a second victim is discovered, DI Erica Swift finds herself on the hunt for another serial killer....

Lara Maher is living with a man who controls her every move. He treats her like a precious possession, and their shared past ties her to him. But now something has changed, and his increasingly volatile moods terrify her....

As the rate of the murders increases, Erica needs to work fast to prevent him from killing again. One thing she does know is that he likes young professional blonde women. Women just like Erica....

Will she risk her own life to stop him when she's already lost so much, or is there another woman out there who can help?

This is the third book in the D I Erica Swift series and as with the other two this case is just as fascinating.
A disturbing serial killer with an artistic flair once again has Erica torn between her job and her family.
Some great twists and unexpected revelations are revealed as this story unfolds and the tension as it reaches its climax will keep you gripped in its clutches till the very end.

Once again the narrator was fantastic in her delivery and character portrayal.

Another great story. It wasn’t slow and as usual left you trying out who the villain could be. Loved it

The tension

Although I had read this back in 2020 i took advantage of the audible sale and listened to the series. I am glad that I did as I went through a whole binge listen on the series.

I did struggle with Erica putting herself out there as much given what happened in book 1 but otherwise there wouldn't be a book. It was a real bingeable book

Then narration worked well.

Great series

Fantastic as always. Always makes such a difference when you're aware of who is responsible for the crimes.
However unsure why Erica's voice is portrayed so softly. if I was reading it I'm unsure I'd give her the same tone as she's meant to be a strong woman no nonsense. .

Bit fed up of sad endings. I nearly rolled my eyes as know it will be a focus in the next book.

Brilliant as always

I’ve listened to the first three books in quick succession. Believable characters and fast paced stories.
Extremely well read.
