Nine Elms

Kate Marshall, Book 1

De: Robert Bryndza

Narrado por: Kristin Atherton

From the breakthrough international best-selling author of The Girl in the Ice, a breathtaking novel about a disgraced female detective’s fight for redemption. And survival....

Kate Marshall was a promising young police detective when she caught the notorious Nine Elms serial killer. But her greatest victory suddenly turned into a nightmare. Traumatized, betrayed, and publicly vilified for the shocking circumstances surrounding the cannibal murder case, Kate could only watch as her career ended in scandal.

Fifteen years after those catastrophic events, Kate is still haunted by the unquiet ghosts of her troubled past. Now a lecturer at a small coastal English university, she finally has a chance to face them. A copycat killer has taken up the Nine Elms mantle, continuing the ghastly work of his idol.

Enlisting her brilliant research assistant, Tristan Harper, Kate draws on her prodigious and long-neglected skills as an investigator to catch a new monster. Success promises redemption, but there’s much more on the line: Kate was the original killer’s intended fifth victim...and his successor means to finish the job.

Implausible

Every character has been seen or written a million times before. Has author ever met women?

will read another

this is an interesting new series. I will definitely try another as soon as more come out.

Riveting!!

Wow what an amazing story it kept me on my toes, could not stop listening to it. I finished the audible within 24 hrs that's how great the book is. love Kate she kept fighting her demons and Tristan what an awesome friend he is towards Kate. Can't wait for the next book to come out.

Just so good

Not a review writer, but this book was perfect in every way. Performance was phenomenal portraying each character as well as emotional tone during the varying events in the book.

Don’t pass this one by.

I enjoyed this book. It was a good story plot, interesting, suspenseful and I enjoyed the narrators voice.

graphic and awesome

I loved it I thought it was different and it was graphic in some parts but made the story better and more believable and interesting

I'm in love

I'm so glad there's more to this series... Kate Marshall is an incredible character, and this was such a fun listen. I listened to it too fast, I couldn't stop.

I was hoping for something engaging and dark, but also fun- this hit the nail on the head.

Great start to a new series!

I really enjoyed this book. Narration is excellent and story is good; though it wasn’t entirely believable which is why I gave it 4 stars. I am really looking forward to the next book in this series!

too much psychodrama

It is difficult to believe that a person so prone to panic and indecision as the main character, could rise in the police ranks to detective constable.Tthis story is a good tutorial on how the Liberal / Progressive legal system favors criminals and facilitates criminal behavior. The characters are weak but the story has a good ending.

graphic and scary!

guess I'm not used to this genre, It was a good story but was too graphic for me in some places. If you enjoy being on the edge of your seat you will love this one.
