4.0

Snakes invading an English village. Just the thought of it makes me terrified! That's what happens in this book, and disfigured wildlife vet Clara tries to find out what is happening.

I found the storyline intriguing and as I listened I got more engrossed in the story, until I looked at the clock and realised it was 3am, and had to finish the next day! I liked the character of Clara, though found her a little annoying at times. There's lots of obviously well researched info about snakes in this book. book has quite a creepy vibe with an eerie abandoned old house and a burnt out church. The ending, complete with a storm cutting the village off, is thrilling and had me on the edge of my seat.

The narration by Alison Reid was excellent.
