On Sunday, February 3rd 1990, seven-year-old Danny Redpath disappeared from his home. Four months later, his body was found in the nearby forest, washed clean of all evidence. Over time, more bodies were discovered; more families devastated forever.
Apprehended while attempting to abduct another child, Jonathan Egan-Walsh was charged with the murders of thirteen boys. Convicted on all counts, he received life in prison and went unrepentant, still refusing to reveal the whereabouts of one of his victims, Zachery Marshall.
Twenty-five years later, Zachery’s mother Diane is still searching for his body. When Jonathan dies in custody, she realises she will never know its location – until she receives a letter he left in his cell, in which he admits he was guilty of all the crimes of which he was accused, except the murder of her son.
Diane tracks down the woman in charge of the case at the time, former DI Caroline Turner, and together with Jonathan’s biographer Alex Frost they start to investigate. Could this be the killer’s final twist of the knife – or is he telling the truth at long last? Sooner or later, this secret buried and undisturbed for a quarter of a century will come to light.

Here, however, the lisp isn't bad at all, after a short while, I barely noticed it (and only now and then). Otherwise, the reading is great, pleasant, natural, with a real, local feel.
I liked it a lot. I am very glad this was offered as 'Enthalten im Abo', I might have discovered a 'new' (for me) author this way.
The book held my interest and I thought it a well-researched and well-written crime story which focuses more on the victims such crimes leave behind than merely looking at a shocking killer and dedicating long paragraphs to detailed descriptions of torture, rape and murder.
Did not mind the lisp at all

The narrator's voice seemed vaguely familiar, then I checked and saw it's Joanne Frogatt from Dowton Abbey. She's done an awesome job on this one!!! I didn't hear no lisp, but the light accent, warmth and intensity of her voice made this story truly come alive for me and deeply touched my heart.
Thrilling, chilling, and yet strangely satisfying.
Thrilling tale, dark and well drawn
