It's hard to live when you think you deserve to die…

When a tired old inmate is found dead in his cell, the prison is obligated to investigate and so DI Barton attends. The men he interviews have been convicted of some of the worst things a human being can do, but it appears likely that the death was due to natural causes.

When the house of the dead man is burgled and that crime is followed by a suspicious fire, Barton desperately needs to speak to his widow, but she’s nowhere to be found.

In the space of twenty-four hours, everyone he wants to talk to has vanished. Then he receives some post which makes him believe he could be the next to disappear.

Barton’s investigation goes full circle, through a series of brutal murders, back to the prison, and all signs are pointing to the fact that he’s made a terrible mistake.

There’s a violent killer on the loose, who wants everyone to learn that some people deserve to die.

DI Barton does it again

I do hope that we will have more in this series - more than the usual twist at the end AND a possible trailer?

Lots of little twists

Love Greenwood & this story was next level great. Little side stories that added so much richness to the book.

Another great listen

I have really enjoyed the DI Barton detective series. I need to start paying closer attention to seemingly insignificant details as I’m listening, because they always come back at the end as part of a major plot twist. David Thorpe does a fabulous job with the narration as usual!

I enjoyed this series

great reader, in this latest one, at some point, you're rooting for both sides to win! I liked the end as it came to it.

Good series

Ross Greenwood is a great story teller! One of my favorite authors. So glad to have stumbled upon this series.

Just as good second time round

love the narrator and the story... not nightmarish, but still a great plot....even some of the 'bad' guys you want them to get revenge...lol

A great twist

At first I didn’t like this one as much as the others in the series because I am not a huge fan of stories set in prisons, but in the end the ingenious plot drew me in and I even found myself routing for the “Cold Killer.” I thought I had guessed whodunnit by halfway through, only to discover that I was only partially right. As usual, I adored the narration. David Thorpe gives convincing and nuanced voices to each character, so it is very easy to know who is speaking. Along with Angus King and Andy Serkis, he has become one of my favorite Audible narrators. I can’t wait for the next instalment of the series.

Wow!

There was a lot going on in this installment of the series, and I’m here for it! Ross Greenwood is a master at drawing the reader in and making us think we know what is going on, but then there’s a twist that turns everything on it’s head! I was drawn into this story, from each perspective, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I love that DI Barton has a healthy marriage and a realistic and relatable home life, in addition to his skillful detecting in his career. Looking forward to more!

Thoroughly enjoyable

Love DI Barton and his team. Enjoy the fact that they don’t always get everything right. Looking forward to some more of their ‘adventures’

The narrator is fantastic

I loved it all! Great story line. The cast of characters are intelligent and there's humor
