About this listen

The dead can talk - we just need to listen....

Camden mortuary assistant Cassie Raven has pretty much seen it all. But this is the first time she's come face to face with someone she knew on the slab. Someone she cared about.

Geraldine Edwards, the teacher responsible for her returning to education after she got ensnared in a life of drugs. The woman who acted as a second mother to the orphaned Cassie.

Deeply intuitive and convinced that she can pick up the last thoughts of the dead, Cassie senses that there must be more to the ruling of an accidental death. With Mrs E's evasive son demanding the release of his mother's body, Cassie knows that time is running out to find answers. Is her grief making her see things that aren't there? Or is her intuition right, and there's something more sinister to Mrs E's death than the ME thinks? Harbouring an innate distrust of the police, Cassie sets out to investigate the death and deliver justice for the woman who saved her life.

For fans of Elly Griffiths' Ruth Galloway series and Kathy Reichs' Temperance Brennan comes a new heroine for forensic medicine.

beautifully written

this is not my usual type of detective story that I tend to go for (gritty, gory, Scottish and sweary) but I was transfixed by bothe narration and the style of writing... looking forward to listening to the next one.

Clever compelling and brilliantly read

I found this a great listen. Compelling story and nicely rounded characters. The narration really worked well, and I will definitely seek out both author and narrator again.

Unexpectedly good and different

What a treat to discover a new author with a very new and different story. The narration was very good too.
I will certainly be checking out more books by A K.Turner.

Excellent

I wasn’t expecting anything from this - I didn’t know the author or narrator - but I was gripped from the start. Brilliantly executed, believable and interesting plot with a sneaky flavour of the another dimension. Loved it.

Brilliant story

I loved this story. Lots of intrigue but without too many characters - so you don’t get lost and the main characters are well developed
