LEAVE NO TRACE Kat and Lock, Book 2

In this mystery set in the near future, listeners join recently widowed DCS Kat Frank and Lock, an Artificially Intelligent Detective Entity (AIDE). They're working together as part of the newly formed Future Policing Unit to investigate the horrific murders of two men. Rose Akroyd's professional narration creates a believable AI character in Lock as it tries to navigate the inconsistencies of humans. She also injects just the right amount of confidence tinged with sadness into Kat's character. Akroyd's use of a warm tone and Midlands accents perfectly conjures the novel's setting. Special effects help differentiate the viewpoint of the killer. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2025]
