    About this audiobook

    Readers adore Blackbird:

    ‘An unputdownable and suspenseful read’

    ‘A beautifully written, heartbreaking story’

    ‘A quick paced thriller with an unusual setting. This book will stay with me for a long time!’

    *************************************************************

    Olivia disappeared the night the blackbird died.

    It was New Year’s Eve, the night that dead blackbirds descended, hours before Alex McCarthy’s sister Olivia vanished from a party.

    Committed to finding out what happened to her sister, in their isolated Orkney village, Alex knows that dishevelled – sometimes intoxicated – Detective Inspector Birkens is her best shot.

    Yet as they uncover the secrets behind Olivia’s last night, Alex starts to discover things she may have been better off not knowing…

    Perfect for fans of One of Us is Lying, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder and Riverdale.

    *************************************************************

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      My grandfather came to live with me. There was nowhere else for him to go. What had happened to all his children? Death, decay, exile—I hardly know. My own parents died of pain. But I must not be too gloomy, at the beginning, or you will leave me, an

      Playing with my toys, I sprang up as soon as I heard the front door open. ‘Dad!’ I cried, when my father, Kevin, walked into the living room. ‘How was your day?’ he asked, a huge smile spreading across his face. At five years old, I was truly a daddy
