About this listen

Based on the bestselling Audible Original by Anthony Khaseria, THE RATCATCHER is a thrilling police drama for fans of Joy Ellis and Michael Wood.

It's been twelve weeks since Dresden Commissioner Paula Beyer was sent to the small town of Freidorf to investigate the disappearance of several teenagers. Now she is sitting opposite a psychologist who is tasked with figuring out whether Paula's statements about the case are true, or whether she needs to be suspended until further notice. While Paula believes that the young people were kidnapped by someone mimicking the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin, her colleagues believe that Paula is indulging in a fantasy and endangering the investigation.

If Paula wants to stop the perpetrator, she has to convince the psychologist of her version of the story. But the longer the conversation goes on, the more Paula doubts herself…

Will leave you frustrated!

Good story with a disappointing ending. And the background noise often overwhelms the voices. Overall enjoyable listen.

Great mystery

The narration was one of the highlights, excellent cast. The story will keep you guessing all the way to the end, even at the end it leaves you guessing. If you prefer that things are wrapped up with a nice tight ending, this might frustrate you but if you like stories that leave the ending up to interpretation this is a good one

Great til the end

Man, a GREAT story. Had me on the edge like I was watching an episode of Law and Order. Then it all fell flat. I still recommend!!
