Publisher's Summary
Your darkest moment is your most vulnerable....
Stephen Berry is about to jump off a bridge until a suicide prevention counsellor stops him. A week later, Stephen is dead. Found at the bottom of a cliff, DI Luc Callanach and DCI Ava Turner are drafted in to investigate whether he jumped or whether he was pushed....
As they dig deeper, more would-be suicides roll in: a woman found dead in a bath; a man violently electrocuted. But these are carefully curated deaths – nothing like the impulsive suicide attempts they’ve been made out to be. Little do Callanach and Turner know how close their perpetrator is as, across Edinburgh, a violent and psychopathic killer gains more confidence with every life he takes....
Includes the short story 'Lost Property' read by the author. An unstoppable crime thriller from the number one best seller. The perfect listen for fans of Karin Slaughter and M. J. Arlidge.

Oh, wow, I like these books! One thing Helen Fields does in each book is make the reader connect with the victims. And she does that well. This book starts with a young man attempting to jump off the Queensferry Bridge. He gets talked down by a very kind civilian and the story explodes from there.
There’s a new DI (I smiled at that announcement) and Tripp is promoted to DS. Good moves. Luc gets himself into potential trouble and Ava covers for him lining them both up for serious consequences.
Just when I figured out who the bad guy was I was thrown in another direction. More good stuff.
I must admit that the narration is good and bad. There was one section when the new detective was speaking and I thought sure it was Luc. I had to go back and listen again. The accents have improved in the last few books but the quality slipped a bit here.
Can’t wait to see what happens after this ending.

Inconsistent Performance- Accents
The story was great. Sadly the performance was poor. The accents of some of the characters varied now from earlier books. Sgt Munro originally had a neutral or Scottish accent and in this book she became Spanish. Pax/ Graham suddenly was different from the previous book as well. Where Callanach’s French accent remained constant, Astride’s accent (? Should have been French) was all over the place. In general I think the reader was tired and lost focus on the characters.
Oh and what happened to Munro’s baby? No mention of it , but she was just back from maternity leave.

I have just finished the 5th book in this series. I read them all in order and they are just brilliant. I cant wait for the 6th in the series and hope there is going to be another one. I think there probably will be as it was left open and ready for the story to continue. If there is, I hope the narrator remains the same as he makes Callanach sound very sexy, although when he was narrating the voice of Ingrid, I am sure he sounded a bit welsh rather than french !! The characters are all very believable and I have enjoyed all of the books immensely. I would highly recommend.

Couldn’t stop listening to this one. Characters develop in such an interesting way. Love the humour around Overbeck and the relationship between Eva and Luke. But the plot is gripping. Dramatic irony with the reader suspecting before the team know keeps the tension taut. Can’t wait for next instalment!

I do like the characters in this series and the will they/won't they is soooo frustrating.
But my favourite element is the narration. This guy is fab at any and the characters are from many different countries AND he doesn't do high, girly voices for women.

Too much emotional drama
This story was satisfactory but not as good as previous stories. The author got to stuck on the relationships of Luc and Ava. Plus really a hand grenade I think that was a bit over the top especially as the DCI sustained minor injuries and was back at work as though nothing had happened. Hope the next one is better

Focused too much on relationships
I have enjoyed all of the seies in order and eagerly started this one. I was disappointed. The main characters relationships distracted from the plot.
In this story, there were too many new team members/characters and the voices were inconsistant. My hope is that the next will be as exciting as the first 4.
