 For sixteen years, the Midwinter Butcher has been lurking in the shadows, committing ritualistic animal killings on the anniversary of DI Joseph Stone's son's tragic death. And ever since, Joseph has been desperate to bring them to justice.

 Now living alone on a narrowboat in the heat of Oxford, the Irish detective has tried to put his shattered life back together, But with his superiors' unwillingness to allocate the necessary resources, his quest for justice has been fruitless.

 That is until he is teamed with the determined and driven DC Megan Taylor, Together, they begin to unravel the web of clues that leads them closer and closer to the truth. Soon it becomes clear that these animals murders were just a prelude to something much more sinister.

 The clock is ticking, and with Joseph's daughter's life on the line. He and Megan must risk everything to catch the Midwinter Butcher before it's too late. Can they bring the killer to justice and Joseph finally find closure, or will his daughter become the next victim in this twisted game of life and death?

My Review:-This is my Number One Book of 2023 up to now. I had the pleasure of reviewing the Book a few weeks ago, so when I had the chance to review the audio for this book, I was only to happy to do so.

 I decided to listen to the audio on an evening, along with a small lamp on to add to the atmosphere. I'll start with the narrator, I loved that the narrator had an Irish accent which worked really well with Joseph, but even with the other his style was prefect. I found I could picture the story in every detail. I have to say the narrator had me on edge many times, especially when they were getting close to the 'Midwinter Butcher.'  There is so many things I could tell you about the story but I don't want to spoil it. I know I will be recommending this Novel in both Audio and Book to all my family, friends and anyone else that wants a great read.
