About this listen
'Ross Greenwood doesn’t write clichés. What he has written here is a fast-paced, action-filled puzzle with believable characters that's spiced with a lot of humour' Kath Middleton
The Santa Killer is coming to town…
One night less than two weeks before Christmas, a single mother is violently assaulted. It’s a brutal crime at the time of year when there should be goodwill to all. When DI Barton begins his investigation, he’s surprised to find the victim is a woman with nothing to hide and no reason for anyone to hurt her.
A few days later, the mother of the woman attacked rings the police station. Her granddaughter has drawn a shocking picture. It seems she was looking out of the window when her mother was attacked. And when her grandmother asks the young girl who the person with the weapon is, she whispers two words.
Bad Santa.
The rumours start spreading, and none of the city’s women feel safe - which one of them will be next?
He’s got a list. It’s quite precise. It won’t matter even if you’re nice.
Ross Greenwood is back with his bestselling series, perfect for fans of Mark Billingham and Ian Rankin.

"Move over Rebus and Morse; a new entry has joined the list of great crime investigators in the form of Detective Inspector John Barton. A rich cast of characters and an explosive plot kept me turning the pages until the final dramatic twist." (Richard Burke)
"Master of the psychological thriller genre Ross Greenwood once again proves his talent for creating engrossing and gritty novels that draw you right in and won’t let go until you’ve reached the shocking ending." (Caroline Vincent at Bitsaboutbooks)

Brilliant end to the series
I thoroughly enjoyed this series and getting to know the characters in all the relationships. I think Ross Greenwood really gets to the nitty-gritty of moral dilemmas, and why people do the things that they do. It’s quite an eye-opener when you look at what he bases the stories on…..highly on recommend!

What A Wonderful Series
I have listened to all DI Barton stories and loved them all, I feel I know all the characters personally.
This story, like the others, is varied and interesting, you think you know who the killer is only to discover you don't.
I confess it did take me a little while to warm to David Thorpe's narration but now I wouldn't like to hear anyone else read as the voice and the character of DI Barton are so fixed for me.
Please do not let this be the last in the series

Just a bit of a mish mash
This book felt uncohesive, it’s unclear if I missed parts where I lost the full context or the book was trying to trick the reader but did a bad job. I think they just kept adding bit after bit
