Another 5 star listen.

Another 5 star listen from April Swan. I really enjoyed this fast paced and exciting story. Twists and Turns abound amongst a well developed cast of characters. A bit of violence well written and edge of the seat listening. Highly Recommended, Peter McGiffen does an awesome job of the narration.
I was kindly given a copy of the book by the narrator and leave this honest review.

Motive

A great first book! An interesting range of developed characters who have depth and personality. The almost casual use of violence might turn some people off, but I found it engaging.
The author April Swan does a good job of getting you to root for a range of the characters. The narrator helps in this task by bringing the cast to life too. Recommended 👍

Amazing narration from Peter McGiffen, who just brings out the darkness, angst and emotions. Perfect

We find ourselves in the streets of Birmingham. Meeting flawed characters who find themselves in the situations. of their own making. Lots of twists and turns and edge of the seat suspense. You got to know the characters really well by how their stories unfold
