About this listen

From the international number one best-selling author of the DCI Ryan mysteries.

Hysteria is the second instalment in Ross' brand-new Dr Alex Gregory series, narrated by actor Hugh Dancy.

Recently returned from his last case in Ireland, elite forensic psychologist and criminal profiler Dr Alexander Gregory receives a call from the French police that he can’t ignore. It’s Paris fashion week, and some of the world’s most beautiful women are turning up dead, their faces slashed in a series of frenzied attacks while the world’s press looks on.

Amidst the carnage, one victim has survived, but she’s too traumatised to talk. Without her help, the police are powerless to stop the killer before he strikes again - can Gregory unlock the secrets of her mind before it’s too late? Murder and mystery are peppered with dark humour in this fast-paced thriller set in a spectacular Parisian landscape.

I did enjoy this book but it was a bit predictable and obvious in areas of the main plot

Interesting but predictable

This was ok sort of strange about double personalities. I’m not sure I would suggest anyone read it but ........

This book was a huge disappointment after Impostor. I had to listen to it twice as I kept falling asleep, so uninteresting were the characters. The unfamiliar sounding French names didn't help either; I couldn't remember who was who. It may have become more exciting toward the end but I couldn't hang on that long.

Deadly dull.

I love LJ Ross's writing style and believable characters and this book does not disappoint and I am growing very fond of the damaged Dr Alexander Gregory!

Fantastic

An excellent psychological mystery. The mental health issue was probably resolved far sooner than it would be in real life, but the story was very well done.

Fascinating
