“...why are we – by which, of course, I mean am I – here?”.
A question Paula Godwin could have, perhaps should have, asked more often as her once secure life spirals downwards almost to insanity. Little is she to know that she will discover demons other than just her own when, prompted by finding a Post-it note in a rain-sodden service station near Winchester, she makes a random telephone call.
In this taut prequel to This Changed Everything and The Armistice Killer, the enigmatic DCI Ben Logan has to unravel the confusing circumstances around a murder and potential sex scandal. But, can he balance intricate detective work with his own ambitions and complex emotions? An intriguing challenge, especially given Logan’s prosopagnosia – the inability to recognise faces. Despite this, or maybe because of this, he often sees what others miss. Choices and consequences make strange bedfellows.
Sometimes literally. Sometimes fatally…

" [...] Be careful what you wish for.
"This had better be good." [...]"
This was my first encounter with David Palin's work. His dark psychological thriller titled "Your call..." made a positive impression on me. It's a quick read.
I met DCI Logan here, who suffers from prosopagnosia, a disease of face blindness. He doesn't recognize faces. I felt very sorry for him. In his difficult work, this disease of his causes many problems. He will have many things ahead of him that will leave a mark on his life. I partially did not understand his behaviour.
Paula Godwin is forty-one years old and seemingly has a perfect life. Because of one stupid note, her life will change completely.
Would you call the number provided after picking up the note from the ground? If you answered "yes", then thanks to this book, you can find out what awaits you.
The plot is good, the action is quite fast-paced. Due to some scenes in this book, I recommend it only to adult readers.
"Your call..." is a prequel to the series with DCI Ben Logan.
