Story
When Zoë Boehm agrees to track down the gang who knocked over Sweeney’s jewellery shop, she certainly doesn’t expect to wind up in a coffin. But she’s about to become entangled with a strange collection of characters, starting with suicidal Tim Whitby, who’s dedicating what’s left of his life to protecting Katrina Blake from her late husband’s brothers, Arkle and Trent. Unfortunately for Zoë, Arkle has a crossbow, Tim has nothing left to lose and even Katrina has her secrets.

When a body is hauled from the River Tyne, Sarah Tucker heads to Newcastle for a closer look. She identifies the dead woman as Private Detective Zoë Boehm, but putting a name to the corpse only raises further questions. Did Zoë kill herself, or did one of her old cases come back to haunt her? Coincidence is an excuse that soon appears pretty unconvincing. Sarah can’t leave until she’s found the answers to her questions, however dangerous they might turn out to be.

When a young man is abducted and his kidnappers threaten to broadcast his beheading live on the Internet, River sees an opportunity to redeem himself.

The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

On a chilly early morning walk on the wooded outskirts of Berlin, Emil Grimm finds the body of his neighbor, a fellow Stasi officer named Lothar, with a gunshot wound to the temple and a pistol in his right hand. Despite appearances, Emil suspects murder. A few months earlier he would have known just what to do, but now, as East Germany disintegrates, being a Stasi colonel is more of a liability than an asset. More troubling still is that Emil and Lothar were involved in a final clandestine mission, one that has clearly turned deadly.

I love Mick Herron but IMO this story was awful
Just dull as watching paint dry. Kept waiting for it to get good, as the other 10 or so books I’ve read by MH have been at least good if not excellent. It just never happened. Almost nothing happened and what did happen happened in such slow and excruciating detail as to render even exciting events dull. Highly recommend ALL in the Slough House series though. The 1st Zoe novel is also good (not great) as is the standalone Reconstruction (despite a SLOW start). I love you Mick!

Great story, great characters and great narrator
It’s a great story this one. Intricately plotted, and Sarah and Zoe are back and ready for action if absolutely necessary. And of course action is necessary. It’s a slow-burn but we’ll worthwhile.

Slow story telling spoils a good story
This is the first book outside the Slough House series I read. I read reviews which help lower expectations, the reviews were generally positive, especially regarding Mick Herron's able writing, I agree with that. But there was too much musing around, and although some humor is present, on the whole, the book was depressing. There was too much repetition of negative thoughts, endless mulling. I seriously missed the energy of Rod Ho, and that is saying a lot, because he is supposedly annoying beyond recovery. I feel the need to share this not so good review, because I was blindsided by the positive reviews I read.

Another example of Herron's impeccable prose.
When you have to Google whether ostriches do really bury their heads in the sand, you know that you're reading a Mick Herron novel.
I have no hesitation in recommending The Last Voice You Hear so that you realise why it is necessary to do so.

Dreadfully affected sing-song narration
As a fan of Mick Herron's books in general, I did enjoy this book's predecessor Down Cemetery Road and it was very well narrated by Anna Bentinck. The Slough House series are also very well served by Sean Barrett. However Julia Franklin is for me, unlistenable. Oddly breathy, and very affected, narration, with peculiar emphases on insignificant words; the voice in which Zoe Boehm's dialogue is rendered is slightly better but I eventually gave up in despair

starts slowly but persevere..
I listened to this out of sequence so didn't have the suspense of knowing who made it to the last page, but was thoroughly satisfied nonetheless.
Mick Herron writes wonderful female characters and given that his plots are entirely character driven makes for stories that are sharp, funny, profound and poignant. Wonderful beautifully enunciated performance by Julia Franklin - I speed her up to 1.20 but that's not a criticism.
