Detective Superintendent Roy Grace is investigating the bizarre slaying of Katie Bishop, a member of Brighton's social elite. Her husband Brian appears to be in the clear - he was in another town at the time, sound asleep. But Grace begins to suspect the presence of a doppelganger: is someone else - almost identical to Bishop - involved in the crime?
Grace's diligent exhuming of murky secrets soon demonstrates that the Bishops' outwardly settled lives had darker corners. And as Grace gets close to the truth, he finds - paradoxically - that it's his own beleaguered private life which is on the line...

“David Bauckham gives an expert narration of this thriller. (He) handles every conceivable variety of British accent, male and female, and even the inexpert English of a Munich policeman. There are some scary episodes in the narrative, and Baulkham's reading carries the terror convincingly, without ever exaggerating it.”
Daily Mail
“James is a master plotter.”
Guardian
“I loved it.”
The Daily Mirror
“Another smashing thriller from the UK's most respected crime writer.”

Whole Story Audio Books has developed a unique system to guide you on the level of explicit content in our audio books. The system is applied against our titles to consistently rate levels of explicit language, sex and violence.
We consider not only frequency of content type but also the context: for example, strong language in a humorous setting is different from aggressive use of strong language.
Whilst there will always be subjectivity and different individuals views on this matter, we hope that you will find our content guide useful if these criteria form part of your selection process when choosing your next audio book.
“...an unabridged audio book tells the whole story.”
