About this listen

Based on the bestselling Audible Original by Anthony Khaseria, THE RATCATCHER is a thrilling police drama for fans of Joy Ellis and Michael Wood.

It's been twelve weeks since Dresden Commissioner Paula Beyer was sent to the small town of Freidorf to investigate the disappearance of several teenagers. Now she is sitting opposite a psychologist who is tasked with figuring out whether Paula's statements about the case are true, or whether she needs to be suspended until further notice. While Paula believes that the young people were kidnapped by someone mimicking the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin, her colleagues believe that Paula is indulging in a fantasy and endangering the investigation.

If Paula wants to stop the perpetrator, she has to convince the psychologist of her version of the story. But the longer the conversation goes on, the more Paula doubts herself…

Clever and gripping

A clever and gripping story, well produced and totally engrossing. One of those stories when you keep changing your mind about what is happening and who is responsible. Hope there’s a follow up

The sound!!

Absolutely brilliant. I do love a full cast Dolby “book” but this made the whole thing electric! The story was new and very full of twist and turns, loved it!

Outstanding short listen!

Well not to give the story or the ending away, but I called it; I knew the historical records of St Anthony's Fire.
And Gandalf was right about baby Frodo...my pug is called Gimli.
Stunning plot, with many twists. Watch out for the end!!

Nearly perfect

I really enjoyed this & the twist at the end was good but remained unresolved, I thought - a bit disappointing.
