About this listen

She wrote a killer story. Now it's coming true...

In the small village of Fortbridge, it's hard to keep a secret. But bestselling crime writer Camilla Harton-Gray is faced with a twist she couldn't see coming: her very own stalker, whose behaviour seems to take a leaf out of Camilla's own novels.

Grappling with a bizarre set of clues, stubborn coworkers and a crisis of confidence, DS Alice Washington knows this is her chance to get it together and prove herself.

But as the pressure builds and Alice's grip on her instincts hangs by a thread, it becomes clear that Camilla's stalker will do anything to keep their identity hidden...

Critic reviews

I loved this rural police thriller set in the small village of Fortbridge with engaging characters, witty dialogue and a fast-paced addictive plot. DS Alice Washington is a troubled but likeable detective sergeant tasked with finding the stalker of a local novelist with a tragic past. I was immediately drawn in by the well-drawn cast of characters and found myself racing to the end towards the twisty and satisfying conclusion. I can't wait to read more about Alice as the series progresses. (Ciar Byrne)
I love a twisty thriller with an unpredictable police investigation, high drama and creeping suspense. All Eyes on You delivers all that along with expertly hewn characters I couldn't help but root for. This first book in DS Alice Washington series is an absolute triumph and I can't wait for more! (Lisa Timoney)
ALL EYES ON YOU is one of those books you can't stop reading but, at the same time, you don't want it to end. A gripping story, intriguing characters, and twists that kept me guessing... all eyes will be on Sam Frances, an exciting new voice in crime fiction. (Daniel Aubrey)

Such a descriptive tale that allowed for a real connection to develop with each character. Immersive read that had a great twist. Cannot wait for Sam to write a second! Huge fan!

Gripped me from the start

I thoroughly enjoyed this! I listened on audio and the narrator did a great job at portraying the snarky hides-her-pain-behind-jokes vibe that is DS Alice Washington.

This book is authentically British and unashamedly Northern and fun. Ive seen shows exactly like this with the archetype characters that make a crime book everything it’s meant to be. I liked the backstory for Alice but also those of the supporting cast who all felt real and fleshed out enough for me to care about them. I liked the humour, the nostalgic references and the look into how UK policing works as we usually only see the US version. I also loved the subtle but poignant social commentary relating to Violence Against Women and Girls and how so many people are failing to protect us because of their own biases.

My only two issues with this were perhaps there were a little too many sarcastic quips/similes and that there wasnt actually that much of the stalking. The POV of the stalker was great and the reveal surprises at the end were largely unexpected but i think i needed it to be a tad bit scarier/focus more on the crimes.

Other than that, this was a smooth and easy read that had me interested from front to back. A really impressive debut and i hope to see more Alice adventures with the main man Roy!

Authentic and Nostalgic Fun!

I'm astounded that this is the author's first published novel. The richness of the character development feels like a much more established author. The character are believable and feel authentic.
the story is good, but I honestly just wanted to hear more about Roy!! I love the humour and one liners. Can't wait to read more. Well worth a read/listen.

Excellent
