About this listen

In Harm's Way is a gripping psychological thriller, with elements of domestic noir and mystery. Perfect for fans of authors like Mark Edwards, Gillian Flynn and Ann Cleeves.

The Baxter house has been on the estate agent’s books for decades. Dilapidated and near derelict, nobody is interested in it. But, for one buyer, the remote location and rat-infested cellar are perfect.

For the first year, Mackenzie’s marriage to Derek was ideal. But Derek believes she is having an affair, and when she realises her husband is becoming controlling, she knows she’s made a terrible mistake.

When she threatens to leave and then disappears, no one believes she has been abducted. DS Geddes is handed the case but isn’t convinced anything criminal has taken place until a startling development comes to light.

Has Mackenzie been abducted, or has she left her husband? And who has bought the Baxter house and for what purpose?

A well read story

Liked this great accents. I must say I’m partial to them.
I would be happy to read more.

Beautifully read, a slow burn

Narration excellent. Fairly slow to start and whilst predictable for the most part still an enjoyable Scottish tale of dark family secrets.

Don’t bother

Lame…I kept waiting for the twist, there was none. Give it a big miss! I did like the accent though.

So repetitive

The story was very predictable but it could have been one to fall asleep to if not for the constant repetition!
A character would say something and then that would be repeated in the next scene. I swear the book could have been 50% shorter, it was written like a last minute essay; all the necessary information scribbled down and then padded out to meet the required word count.
Very irritating to say the least!
