Keep Her Close

By: M. J. Ford

Narrated by: Joan Walker

The second edge-of-your-seat thriller from M.J. Ford

When a young woman goes missing from Jesus College, Oxford, DS Josie Masters is plunged into a world of panic as fear grips the city. Along with Thames Valley Police’s newest recruit, the handsome DS Pryce, Josie must act fast – and when two more students disappear from Oriel and Somerville colleges, she realises the killer is sending her a deadly message in a cruel game of cat and mouse. This time, the case is personal – but who is the perpetrator?

In a desperate race against the clock, Josie hunts for the kidnapper, and soon discovers he could be a lot closer to home than she’d ever thought…

M.J. Ford is back with a gripping new thriller, perfect for fans of Cara Hunter and T.M. Logan.

Critic reviews

"Superb - really enjoyable and gritty." (Mel Sherratt, million-copy best seller)

"A fab...thriller!" (Jacqui Rose)

"A cracking debut from M.J Ford. Well-written and sizzling with tension. Deserves to do well." (James Nally, author of Alone with the Dead)

Read book one before listening to book two

First book in well written procedural series is not available on Audible. Events in unrecorded book made book two more difficult to fully understand Josie Masters' actions and reactions until epilogue. Narrator was excellent. I look forward to an audio of a third book in series.

The plot was great

I really liked the story, the twists and characters. I can never guess the end, which is good. I filled the narrator’s voice, she made Josie sound like an old lady
