About this listen

HOW CAN HE SAVE A MAN WHO IS ALREADY DEAD?

‘Compelling, vivid and profound’ PETER JAMES

‘A fast-moving thriller that makes for an exhilarating read. Perfect for any fans of Lee Child’ SUN

‘Who is Solomon Creed? He's the hero of an epic new series of thrillers. Simple as that’ MARK BILLINGHAM

A PLANE CRASHES IN THE ARIZONA DESERT.

When Solomon Creed emerges from the wreckage he remembers just one thing: that he must save a man in danger.

A DEATH THAT CAN’T BE EXPLAINED.

In the nearby town of Redemption, Holly Coronado buries her young husband. A terrible accident, or something more sinister?

ONLY ONE MAN CAN EXPOSE THE TRUTH.

When Solomon finds Holly, his search becomes a quest for the truth – and a race to expose a terrifying secret, hidden for generations, that could silence a town forever.

The first in an electrifying series from Sunday Times bestselling author of SANCTUS, Simon Toyne

Critic reviews

"Among the best current thrillers." ( Sunday Express)
"A cool, confident debut...with pace, grace and a keen eye for cinematic effect." ( Daily Telegraph)
"Intriguing and engaging.... Relentless pace. An exciting and interesting read. I look forward to returning to Ruin, where there are plenty of stories waiting to be told." ( The Sun)
"High concept, debut conspiracy thrillers don't come with higher expectations than this. Hard to think of it as a debut, better to think of it as the beginning of a massive new adventure, and a so-long to Dan Brown." ( Mirror)
"A fast moving, thoroughly enjoyable, adventure - plenty of action, plenty of intrigue and a wonderfully imaginative reinterpretation of a slice of religious history. The sort of novel to devour in one sitting." (Kate Mosse)

The narrator is brilliant as well as the story
Even stopped me from binge watching Netflix
I'm so often disappointed in audible books as the narrator is often poor, but it's not the case here. Worth a listen

Would you try another book written by Simon Toyne or narrated by Joseph Balderrama?

I would, and have listened other Simon Toyne books and this does compare favourably.

It did very much leave the door open for the next instalment and in some ways I would have preferred to have waited for the next one to be released.

I've read the actual books, but loved listening to them too. The narrator is excellent. The story is brilliant, would recommend the series, this is the first.

Fabulous eerie story, with great narrator

Haven't quite finished this yet but want to get my review out asap to encourage you to try this.
It's kind of Jack Reacher meets Stephen King and I'm enjoying it immensely. Will certainly be checking out Toyne's previous novels.
Don't want to finish this and can't wait to finish this, both at the same time if you know what I mean...
Terrific narration by Joseph Balderrama in a variety of accents.

Smouldering suspense

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I have mixed feelings about this cross genre oddity. It has atmosphere, tension, pace and plenty of action so there's a lot to commend it. Some irritating accents and plodding back story grated on me and it was, for me, longer than needed. I also love thrillers more than horror and mysticism but I am certain that for many listeners it will surely hit the spot. Go in knowing what it is and you won't be disappointed.

Interesting...

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book, I wanted to know where it was heading and having read previous Simon Toyne books I read and listened to this one

The story is really good, I hate doing reviews as I don't like to give things away, I hate that if it happens to me but rest assured it is a feel good book, my heart raced at times too

A good listen in this case too, the narrator was not irritating

Who was your favorite character and why?

Solomon Creed, as you listen to the story it becomes apparent why

Not that I know of

If I could

Love Simon Toyne

The desert scene when JC finds the mirror and looks into it.

Looking forward to the second installment.
