À propos de cet audio

The addictive, page-turning crime thriller from top 50 bestselling author, Ross Greenwood

A crime story with a twist in its tale which will surprise even the most hardened thriller readers.

‘Fear the north wind. Because no one will hear you scream…’

A family is gunned down in the snow but one of the children survives. Three years on, that child takes revenge and the Snow Killer is born. But then, nothing - no further crimes are committed, and the case goes cold.

Fifty years later, has the urge to kill been reawakened? As murder follows murder, the detective team tasked with solving the crimes struggle with the lack of leads. It’s a race against time and the weather – each time it snows another person dies.

As an exhausted and grizzled DI Barton and his team scrabble to put the pieces of the puzzle together, the killer is hiding in plain sight. Meanwhile, the murders continue…

"With The Snow Killer, master of the psychological thriller genre Ross Greenwood once again proves his talent for creating engrossing and gritty novels that draw you right in and won’t let go until you’ve reached the shocking ending." (Caroline Vincent)

"Ross Greenwood doesn’t write clichés. What he has written here is a fast-paced, action-filled puzzle of a story with believable characters and spiced with a lot of humour." (Kath Middleton, author)

I honestly went into this one thinking it would just be okay. After all they announced the "dramatic twist" right there on the cover. Turns out I loved it, and have gotten the next few books in the series already. The plot kept me engaged throughout and I think this is one of the few mystery novels I met with dual perspectives that works for me. Generally I'd prefer one POV over another but I thoroughly enjoyed both DI Barton and the Snow Killer. And that twist really did get me. It came from nowhere, but it made sense and worked great.

I liked it a lot. Decent writing, likable characters (a little performatively PC, but in a realistic way? I can't explain it, but it's not annoying. I feel like it is a fair depiction of modern policing and the complicated feelings officers have of both nostalgia for [and relief at the end of] old school policing). It's actually really refreshing to find a cop protagonist who isn't a hot mess and has a fairly stable family life. I loved the sympathetic villain/antihero? It was a well developed mystery, with a twist that was actually good and not simply for the sake of having a twist. I will definitely seek out more books in the series.

good

Enjoyed the narration very much. Slightly different to what I have listened to before. Surprise twist at the end - very well placed, did not suspect at all. The story was good and well paced but stretched out a bit too long in my opinion.

I look forward to listening to other stories by this author and I hope the narrator is the same.

Very Good

One the best books I’ve read in a long time. The twist was entirely unforeseen. My only problems were all elderly people seemed to be doddering fools, and the pace is a little slow for many listeners, at least in America. Still, I’d highly recommend it.

Great Book with an Unexplained Twist
