Killing the Shadows Audiobook

" This was definately very captivating! I think all crime writers should read this! Will give you chills! "

" I've read all of her Tony Hill series, but this is a standalone story. Not quite as good as the heroine is unsympathetic and grumpy a lot of the time, the plot is very far-fetched, but the story got me gripped and I didn't guess the villain in advance. "

" I loved this book, it captured my right from the start to the edge of the seat finished another fantastic read by Val McDermid "

" definitely a disappointment. Too many little things I found annoying. "

" Mei... ein Krimi eben. Ganz netter Plot, aber leider schablonenhafte Figuren. Nice to read, nice to forget. "

" I can't stop reading this author... "

" This is a stand alone novel that takes a slightly different look at how a psychologist is able to help police solve crimes. Of course the psychologist is dragged into the crime, if not you don't have a story. It's an enjoyable read though the ending is a big of a let down. "

" Good thriller! I was on the edge of my seat in the last 20 pages. "

" A serial killer who is targeting writers of serial killer novels! Very unique and I liked how there seemed to be three separate crimes occurring simultaneously as this would reflect 'real life' more. "

" I like Val McDermid's books and this is no exception- some positives in that the heroes are less angst ridden than Tony Hill and side kick but these characters not as well developed. Lighter than a lot of her books. "

" I had such high hopes for this book. It started out great, but the ending was a real disappointment-- completely unrealistic, and anticlimactic at that. "

" Couldn't put it down! Really scary and gripping. "

" I generally don't read much Thrillers like this and I must say I was positively surprised. This book deserves all the glory it has received in the press, and has held me captive from my other commitments for a couple of weeks now. "

" I would like to read more of Fiona Cameron. "

" I read and enjoy mysteries, but this book just didn't sit right with me. Disappointed because Place of Execution, also by McDermid got such good reviews. "

" enjoyed a new twist - some one is killing mystery writers! good plot, keeps you guessing, so far the best mcdermid mystery i have read. "

" Rather gory, but fascinating plot and likeable characters. "

" Val McDermid writes some great psychological thrillers. There is quite a variety of opinions on this one, but I liked it. It's fast-paced, well-written, and has some good characters who I wouldn't mind meeting again, but I gather this is a stand-alone. "

" I just discovered this author and I'm really enjoying her murder mystery novels - the characters are well-developed and the plots are clever and have good (but not outrageous) twists. "

" Very predictable, time to lay off the Val McDermid books. "

" Ok a bit far fetched at times and not her best but a page turner in the end. "

" I read this on the Nook because Stieg Larsson mentioned the author in one of his books. I've never read a book with so many grammatical errors in it. There must have been a poor proof reader or poor translator here. I liked it but felt it was slow going at times. It had moderate interest. "

" This book was a bit more gruesome than ones I normally read, about a serial killer killing authors of serial killer books, and mainly about a Psychologist whose expertise is about crime linkage (but is also married to an author).Good book with an unexpected twist. "

" Better than some of hers I read, but a rather self indulgent plot--someone is killing mystery writers in the same manner as characters in their books. Good characterizations and a plot that keeps you guessing. Although here the tie up with another crime is a bit off the wall and a stretch. "

" A really good thriller if you can take gruesome. Good plot, keeps you guessing... "

" I just discovered this author and I'm really enjoying her murder mystery novels - the characters are well-developed and the plots are clever and have good (but not outrageous) twists. "

" This was not the best crime thriller, it was going ok until the last part where it became very unbelievable. I wouldn't recommend it. "
