Shadow Sands

Kate Marshall, Book 2

By: Robert Bryndza

Narrated by: Kristin Atherton

An Amazon Charts best-selling series

The moors are a perfect hiding place for a serial killer. And a chilling return to the past for nascent private investigator Kate Marshall in a pulse-racing thriller by the author of Nine Elms.

Criminology academic Kate Marshall is on a scuba jaunt with her son when they dive toward a shocking discovery: the body of a teenage boy entangled below the surface of the Shadow Sands reservoir. The detective chief inspector’s too-quick narrative of a tragic drowning doesn’t add up, and when Kate follows the evidence, it leads to a darker discovery.

The victim is only the latest in a series of mysterious deaths and disappearances linked to the moorlands - and a mythic phantom said to hide in the rolling fog. When a researcher of urban legends vanishes without a trace, Kate and her associate Tristan Harper must act fast and look deep if they hope to find her alive.

But the elusive serial killer they’re hunting isn’t the only one a step ahead of Kate and Tristan. Someone else is making dead certain that the secrets of Shadow Sands stay buried.

Critic reviews

"A cracking thriller from a rising star in British crime fiction." (Irish Independent)

"Sharply written and wonderfully wrought, this crime thriller sings with every twist and builds to a more-than-satisfying bang." (Publishers Weekly)

Kate “Holmes” & Tristan “Watson”

In my worst British accent “My god, you’ve done it again, my dear chap. Well done Robert”.

35 y/o American female here.

Kate and Tristan are my new fav PI listen. Bryndza always delivers and as much as I love DCI Erika Foster, I love Kate Marshall just a little bit more.

Narrator Kristin Atherton preforms impeccably. As she always does.

If you enjoy RB’s past work - you will definitely enjoy the Kate Marshall series. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

hooked from the start

I couldn't wait for this book to come out and I wasn't disappointed. bow the wait for the next book in the series begins. I'm sure it will be well worth the wait.

Bravo!

Another GREAT read from Bryndza! The book kept me entertained all the way to the end. Narration is another 5 stars. I’d recommend this book to everyone who wants an overall awesome experience. I hope I don’t have to wait too long for my next Bryndza fix!

A great listen

This is the second book of the series, and it was great. Love the characters. Great storyline and very creative. Not too graphic, not too much gore, but still suspenseful. I plan to order the next book tonight!

I hope the 3rd book is a good as the first two!

I loved this book and I'm so impressed with the narrator, Kristin Atherton. She is, by far, one of the best I've heard and I've listened to several hundred books. I'm off to find the next book....

Shadow Sand Review

Very much liked the story and narrator! I've read several books by Robert Bryndza and feel this about the best overall so far. Kept my interest throughout Nd the narration was too notch. Looking forward to more about these characters and adventures.

Absolutely Fantastic

The Kate Marshall series is quickly making its way to my top five detective series list. Bryndza is an amazing author.

Will look for book 3

Another good chapter in the series but...
If only authors would do just a little research on firearms before they tried to write them into their stories. It happens quite a bit and its maddening to me. REVOLVERS DON'T HAVE A SAFETY.

Wow

A great follow-up to NINE ELMS. Even better. And I liked that book.

This author has become one of my favorites. Each series has been full of interesting characters and hairy situations. Kate is getting stronger in her investigation work and Tristan is growing in his personal life and his professional lives.

Kate and her son find a body while they are scuba diving in the Shadow Sands reservoir. Kate has questions about the police investigation and their conclusions. When she’s hired to find out what really happened to the boy things get very interesting.

There’s a lot going on here and both Kate and Tristan have to deal with personal issues. It’s a terrific book.

The narration by Kristen Atherton was great.

I’m looking forward to Book 3.

Another good one

I've been a fan of this author for a long time. There's not one book that I haven't loved so far. This one did not disappoint. The narrator is excellent and kept my attention throughout. Good job!
