Incredibly dry and boring narration. The book itself is decent for a debut but I think it’s very much overwritten. You know who the killer is right off the bat and really nothing shocking or crazy happened to make this a wow. I’m sure the bad reviews are being deleted because this only has 3 reviews under 4 stars and this is not a 5 star book.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for the free audiobook in exchange for my honest review. This is narrated by Gareth Richards and while I had a hard time initially following the story, I stuck with the audio and got hooked. I will say that there should have been more variation in the voices as it was often hard to distinguish which character was speaking. However, this should be a must read as its very entertaining and I found myself pulled into the story.
Serial killers, murder, psychologist and detectives! All of the boxes are ticked with this one!!!
This is a well written story that follows a serial killer that mimics the past kills of infamous serial killers such as Bundy, Manson and BTK. He also enlists the help of "pupils" to do some of the kills as well. There are a couple of twists thrown in that make the story have more depth and interest for the reader. All in all, this one is a killer 5 star story that should not be missed!!!

When I start a new audiobook there are times where I question if the narrator is a good fit for the book. Often, even if I don’t love the narrator, I can continue with the story and I get used to the voice as the book goes along. I hate to say it but at 30% I can’t listen to this one anymore. Having a good narrator really makes or breaks an audiobook and this one was a miss for me. It’s not to say the narrator is bad, but it’s definitely a bad fit for this book. I’m DNF’ing but may try the print version of this book instead because the story is intriguing.

Some books are not meant to be audiobooks, and I think this is one of them. I didn’t love the narrator of this book. There wasn’t enough differentiation in the voice when different characters are talking. I think the prologue started with a text conversation and I don’t think it was interpreted well. I got a little lost with what each person was saying, and I would have rather gotten to see it to make sense of it. I think this book has a lot of potential, but I will have to give it another chance when it comes out, because I couldn’t listen to this narrator for that long.
