Detective Kim Stone Crime Thriller, Book 4

By: Angela Marsons

Narrated by: Jan Cramer

The girl stared unseeing up to the blue sky. Her mouth was open, as if she was about to speak, to cry for help… but her voice had been silenced forever.

When Detective Kim Stone and her team are sent to Westerley, a forensic research facility, they discover the body of a young woman, her mouth filled with soil. But she doesn’t belong there. It seems a killer has discovered the perfect cover for their crime.

Kim breaks the devastating news of Jemima’s murder to her parents, who speak of a gentle soul with no enemies. Yet when Jemima’s sister confides in Kim that she was afraid to leave the house, Kim is certain that Jemima knew her killer, and is determined to find this brutal murderer before he strikes again.

Scouring Jemima’s crime scene, Kim finds a hairgrip, decorated with a heart cut in two. Then a second woman is attacked and left for dead, her mouth crammed with dirt, just like Jemima’s. A similar hairgrip is found nearby. But when she wakes in hospital, she can’t remember what happened, only the sing-song rhyme one for you and one for me.

As Kim stares into her tear-filled eyes, she vows to uncover what links the women. And when she learns they went to the same school, she knows the answers lie buried in the past. But then a third woman goes missing, and she knows time is running out. Can she find the truth before a twisted, damaged mind claims another life?

An absolutely heart-pounding mystery thriller from multi-million-copy number one bestseller Angela Marsons that will have you hooked on the Detective Kim Stone series.

Can be enjoyed as a standalone.

This book is GREAT!!

This book is a great read! Storyline was great! Performance by Jan Cramer was great!!!

On to the next book in the series

Great story, great narration, I'm staying in the UK a bit longer. Only hope Audible has the entire series.

Great addition to the series

Angela Marsons has crafted another great suspense/thriller. This book does work as a standalone novel, however I recommend listening from the beginning of the series. There are plenty of twists and turns to the story to make one feel as those they're on a roller coaster.

Really enjoyed all of these books

Waited for this one to have an audio version as I drive a ton for work and thankfully it didn't take long. Great character development and intriguing plot.

Best one yet!

Can't wait for book 5!!! I listened to all 4 books in a week and i loved the character development, the plot lines and the crimes. This last one was my favorite and kept me guessing longer than usual!

Keeps you guessing all the way

What can I say. I need another book ASAP. I really like the books from Angela Marsons and I would definitely like it to be narrated by Jan Cramer. The plot is excellent the other crimes nearly nestled in the story to expose something more!!! From now on I'm accusing everyone of being the culprit until the last page of the book.

Not Marson's best

There was too much reliance upon prior novels. I had to keep reminding myself of what happened in previous books to make sense of this one. Definitely needs to be read in order of publication.
