Lyngate Woods

By: Denis McCarthy

Narrated by: Rachael Cheeseman

A senseless vicious murder in West London starts a reign of horrific attacks on young women, leaving the police clueless as to the motive behind them. As a pattern emerges, Detectives Andy Martins and Charlotte Campbell begin to piece together a profile of the killer. The killings lead them to a suspect who has a unrelenting motive for killing these women. Despite the killer leaving them clues, they are running out of time to stop him. Can they get a step ahead before his final act that will end his mission?

Launching his literary career with this troubling yet thrilling listen, what truly sets this novel apart is how the author demonstrates the pervasive and scary potential of social media. Appealing to all those who are looking for something more menacing than a regular whodunnit, Denis McCarthy has launched his literary career with murderous gusto, and in the process, has created an eager audience keen to pick up a copy of his next offering.

A psychological thriller that draws listeners in from the outset, Lyngate Woods is made all the more disturbing by the fact its protagonist engages with his victims’ families whilst undertaking his murderous deeds. An impressive first work of published fiction, the author has centred on the perception of moral justices, when empathy disappears from human relationships.

Dark, and Gripping,

Lyngate Woods pulls you deep into the mind of a serial killer and doesn’t let go. Some scenes are graphic and unsettling—but that’s exactly what makes a good thriller work. The tension is relentless, and the finale left me eager for book two. The narration was excellent, perfectly capturing the eerie, chilling tone of the story.

Lyngate Woods

This was a very good story.It had some lulls,but the suspense kept coming. Being in the mind of a woman hating serial killer is daunting. Narration by Rachael Cheeseman was well done. I was given this book free for an honest review.

Shook me

This was an inside look into a serial killer’s mind after he goes on a murder spree after a bad breakup. It was scary but also pulled me in. What a page turner.
