About this listen

A money-laundering accountant disappears in Romania. The hitman hired to disappear him is found dead in a Glasgow flat. And the owner of the flat, the accountant's widow, claims she knows nothing about it.

Crime reporter Rosie Gilmour isn't convinced by Helen Lewis' innocent facade - she is convinced Helen was the one who ordered the hit on her husband, and she's going to prove it. But when she discovers that Helen's husband worked for a ring of gangsters selling babies from Romanian orphanages, her focus shifts.

Now she has two sets of criminals to bring to justice - she'd better pray they don't catch up with her first.

A nail-biting thriller for fans of Kimberley Chambers, Dreda Say Mitchell and Jessie Keane.

So, is this the end for Rosie Gilmour? I really hope not. Another fantastic narration by Sarah Barron.

Great story & excellent narrative. Well done to both of you. Only comment from me is too many "Christs" in the dialogue. I've enjoyed the whole series and will continue to recommend them.

The Narrator brought the story to life

I've listened/read the whole series now and I'm gutted there's no ending! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT! This book was published in 2017 I think.... 4 years ago! I NEED to know! lol great story but I'd love another book to round it off!

Now what am I supposed to do!

I love this series. I really enjoy the fact that the lead character - Rosie Gilmour is not a fractious and unpleasant person, she isn't conniving or selfish. I love her character and feel fearful of some of the scrapes she gets into. The story is, as ever, excellent with shady characters and people smuggling. I really looked forward to this book and have NOT been disappointed. The side stories, and the other characters - Her Editor, Photographer, TJ and Adrian are all well developed and likeable. I loved it!

Wow

Brilliant great narrator

I enjoyed this book very much especially the ending, but I don't think the plot was as coherent as in the previous books. There was a sense of having encountered very similar situations in previous books but it didn't detract from the overall experience and the book was very enjoyable.

I love this series

As always a well narrated, well written book. I have listened to all books to-date in the series. Give it a go. you won't regret it.

A great listen

If you like Rosie Gilmour you will love this, it is not ground breaking but it's rare that anything shocks these days, it's all been done before, this is a solid story, with great characters and I totally enjoyed it (except for the tear jerking Orphanage scenes)

Another brilliant Gilmour investigation
