Summary

By day, she defends the innocent. By night, she hunts the guilty.

Mae Darling has it all: a glittering career as a top London barrister, a Chelsea townhouse, and a wardrobe full of Dior. But beneath the silks and sophistication lies a darker truth—Mae Darling is a killer, slaying the predators who slip through the fingers of lady justice.

When her work brings her face to face with the man responsible for her father’s death, Mae realises that the long arm of the law isn’t long enough.

Balancing her intellect against her impulses, Mae sets off in pursuit of a spiralling conspiracy that will take her to the upper echelons of British power and the darkest depths of human depravity, where the lines between justice and revenge becomes perilously blurred.

Cold, calculating, and deliciously dark, Mae Darling must venture into the shadows to stop her from becoming the very thing she hunts.

Narrated by Pippa Bennett-Warner (star of GANGS OF LONDON and MOONFLOWER MURDERS) DARLING DEATH is perfect for fans of KILLING EVE and DEXTER.

Mae Darling — you came into my life just last night, and now you’re already gone!

Why, oh why did I not discover this book once the whole series was out? One was absolutely not enough.

A great story, fantastic narration, and the fact it was free was just the cherry on top. I’ll admit — I had to listen to the first couple of chapters more than once because I struggled to match the narrator’s voice with the picture I had in my head. But once it clicked? I genuinely couldn’t put it down.

It’s exactly my kind of humour, not too explicit, and with a heroine I can’t wait to meet again. A brilliant start to a series I’ll definitely be continuing, as and when they happen! 🙌🏼

Wow, loved it!

Wow!!! Fab narration of an unusual offbeat drama/thriller. This may be the best audiobook I've ever had. Funny, dangerous, action packed, romantic but with a serious message underneath.

A expose of The Establishments concerned, but with delicious descriptions and fashions.

SO SAD IT"S OVER - RECOMMENDED
