Nine strangers receive a list with their names on it in the mail. Nothing else, just a list of names on a single sheet of paper. None of the nine people know or have ever met the others on the list. They dismiss it as junk mail, a fluke - until very, very bad things begin happening to people on the list. First, a well-liked old man is drowned on a beach in the small town of Kennewick, Maine. Then, a father is shot in the back while running through his quiet neighborhood in suburban Massachusetts.

One weekend, while Andrew Mason was on a fishing trip, his wife, Brie, vanished without a trace. Most everyone assumed Andy had got away with murder—it's always the husband, isn't it?—but the police could never build a strong case against him. For a while, Andy hit rock bottom—he drank too much to numb the pain, was abandoned by all his friends save one, nearly lost his business, and became a pariah in the place he once called home. Now, six years later, Andy has finally put his life back together. But Andy's peaceful world is about to shatter.

The price of cheating
A woman who seeks revenge on cheating men is always worth a read. This book didn't fail to disappoint. I love the story, the punishments and the characters. The narrator did a fantastic job bringing the story to life.

Not my thing
What disappointed you about Pop Goes the Weasel?
I was looking forward to a mystery with strong female leads, and I don't mind stories about complicated, flawed people at all. I stopped listening [POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT] about the time that the main female lead goes to visit her male prostitute bondage expert for her weekly kinky slap-around. That's just not my thing and the story permanently lost me with it.
Would you be willing to try another one of Elizabeth Bower’s performances?

Eh, kind of formulaic, and not enthralled by the formula
I thought I might like this series. I liked the first okay and gave the second book a chance. But, the main character isn’t really all that appealing. She is in some ways, but always has to make “the big moves” in a case on her own. Too “Lone Ranger,” which makes the story feel less believable.
Some possible spoiler alerts to follow.
In addition, all of the supporting cast of officers around her don’t last long. In the course of 2 investigations (1st book & 2nd book), she’s lost 2 Sargents; as well as about to lose the only Detective Constable we’ve come to know. She also lost a boss. This unit has the highest turnover of staff that I’ve come across in reading police procedurals.
I’ve also begun to wonder if Southampton doesn’t have more shuttered and abandoned buildings than any other place in the world. The 2 stories I have read have needed a lot of them to advance the plots & it makes the region sound economically depressed and depressing.
And last, 2 female serial killers in 2 stories?! It beggars belief which kept me from really getting into the story.

From start to finish, this ia fine procedural detecting story. A lot of red herrings lead us all over the landscape - interior and exterior.
These first books in the series continue to be my preferred reading. Intelligent, straight forward, interesting characters, well explored plots and a motorcycle riding female head of the detectives' department.

I love this series!!
This is the second novel in the Helen Grace </I> series and it
follows right in the footsteps of the debut, eeny meeny, with brutal murders, multiple storylines, high wire tension, chilling twists, unforseeable turns, and believable characters doing their best to bring justice to the victims of crime. The unique quality of this series makes it very addictive, especially the audiobook editions.
Narrator Elizabeth Bower's performance it crisp, emotional, and down right magnificent! She takes the authors writing clean off the pages, making the story up close, personal, and, quite frankly, ALIVE!
So bring it, Mr. Alridge! Elizabeth will make your masterful stories live and breathe!

NEVER DISAPPOINT
Love all of Arlidge books and the witty titles. All of his books are quick reads. Though I normally prefer lengthier books, I don't mind these because he uses all the pages in his books constructively. No Fluff no unnecessary details just fast pace thrillers. Same fantastic narrator used for all his books which makes the stories even better and bring the characters to life.
