A mind-tangling thrill ride
THE BIRDICT
🧡 Another intriguing thriller and thought provoking premise set in the world of Marr’s previous books, The One and The Marriage Act. Recommend reading in order, not least because, if you like those, you’ll enjoy this.
SQUAWKING THE TALK
🎧 We have an intricate plot, several narratives and many a twisty turn. Whilst this makes for a great story, it does raise issues for the audio format. To the producers’ credit, they did have two narrators. Without this, it would have been impossible to follow. As it was, I was able to keep up, but it could have been seamless with one narrator per character.
🎧 Chapter listings needed some work. For example, what is listed as “Chapter 2” is actually Part 1.
