About this listen
A new short story from award-winning author Ann Cleeves
Ann Cleeves, the Sunday Times number one best-selling and award-winning author of the Vera, Shetland and Two Rivers series, returns with a darkly delicious short story featuring DI Matthew Venn, as featured on ITV's The Long Call. This enthralling tale also features an exclusive extract from the 10th Vera Stanhope novel The Rising Tide publishing later this year.
It was winter. Cold and clear, a different sort of day for this coast where the westerly winds usually blew rain and cloud.
Detective Inspector Matthew Venn is standing by his kitchen window when he first spots them. Two young girls, facing away from him, seemingly staring towards something in the distance. They are holding hands, and they are alone.
Though not a natural with children, Matthew knows he must find out why the girls are here, on a school day, unsupervised. And so he meets Olivia and Imogen, a pair of sisters whose secrets Matthew must uncover if he hopes to get them home.
The Long Call and The Heron's Cry, the first two novels in the Two Rivers series, featuring Matthew Venn, are available now.

Rip off
Being charged full price for a short chapter then a rerun of a book I have already purchased. Will be looking into obtaining a refund.

A very short story
Wasted a credit on less than an hour of content. Usually love Ann Cleeves but felt short changed

Overpriced
Can’t believe Audible charged full price for this short bit of nonsense. Have to work out how to get a refund.

Very short story
Didn’t realise it was a short story and feel annoyed I wasted my credit on it. It was ok but disappointed.

Ripped off
Very disappointed as I didn’t realise that this was only an excerpt. If I had known I wouldn’t have wasted my credit.

The rest of the story.
I have made several attempts to listen to this but I can only get to the end of Chapter. 2. It then switches to the"Rising tide". How can I hear the rest of "the Girls". I'm hooked and want to hear more.

Terrible.
Bizarrely this publication is mostly a chapter from another unrelated story. Both disappointing and confusing.
