About this listen

A killer is playing cat and mouse...and winning.

DCI Whitney Walker’s in trouble. She’s threatened with demotion if she screws up another case. So, when a killer starts murdering female students, it’s a chance to redeem herself.

Forensic psychologist, Dr. Georgina Cavendish, has spent her life inside the university walls, but when one of her students is murdered, she steps out from behind the text books and puts her skills to the test.

The two headstrong women join forces to stop the killer. But sparks fly when real world policing meets academic theory, and it’s not a pretty sight.

Deadly Games is the first book in the Cavendish & Walker crime fiction series. If you like serial killer mysteries and psychological intrigue, then you’ll love Sally Rigby’s thrilling listen performed by award-winning narrator Clare Corbett.

Includes a special bonus note from the author.

Predictable story well presented

From a purely story standpoint, Deadly Games seldom offers anything new and groundbreaking. Yet, there is a charm in its execution. The characters are what saves the story. Maybe that's exactly what the author intended to do. Rather than the story being a constant source for tantalizing thrills, it becomes a prelude to a longer relationship between the protagonists

Good

This is the first book of the Cavendish & Walker series. The plot is mainly about a serial killer and the police trying to find out who murdering the students.

The book is fast paced and the journey of George and Whitney from not even wanting to each other to becoming friends is good. It is fun reading murder mysteries because it gives the reader the power to guess who the culprit is. I had two people narrowed down as the culprits and it was one of them (yay!). At the end even before the killer is revealed it kind of becomes evident, who the killer is. The lesson this book tells us is that it is not good to trust everyone. Overall, I enjoyed this book and the narrator did an excellent job.

Good god, no way

The voice performance on this is really high quality. Unfortunately the story doesn't deserve it. It's like being in the head of a Karen half the time.

Predictable.

You spend most of the book waiting for the protagonists to catch up with you. Amateurs!

It was well read, though.
