Publisher’s Synopsis:
There are two sides to every story: yours and mine, ours and theirs, his and hers. Which means someone is always lying.
When a woman is murdered in Blackdown, a quintessentially British village, newsreader Anna Andrews is reluctant to cover the case. Detective Jack Harper is suspicious of her involvement, until he becomes a suspect in his own murder investigation.
Someone isn’t telling the truth, and some secrets are worth killing to keep.
Rellim’s Thoughts:
DNF @ 45%.
I tried. Really hard. Which is a big indicator of an issue. If I have to keep forcing myself to pick it back up or care… The narration was absolutely phenomenal and that might be why I went as long as I did. There were some interesting reveals and *twists* – but I just couldn’t overcome how much disdain I felt for both main characters. Jack & Anna were unlikeable.
More details on my objections – but contains spoilers:
Jack was particularly problematic. I could not stand that he was in possession of so much information & evidence and not disclosing it. Personally involved with the victim. I get a slightly flawed cop – but this was ridiculous and over the top.
Anna was a self centered alcoholic. She blames everyone else for her problems and I don’t really see the point of her in the story even after listening to half of it.
Narration:
Richard Armitage and Stephanie Racine were wonderful. I’d love to check out more narrations from either one.
