About this listen

From the critically acclaimed author Ausma Zehanat Khan, A Deadly Divide is the devastatingly powerful new thriller featuring beloved series Detectives Esa Khattak and Rachel Getty.

In the aftermath of a mass shooting at a mosque in Quebec, the local police apprehend Amadou Duchon - a young Muslim man at the scene helping the wounded - but release Etienne Roy, the local priest who was found with a weapon in his hands.

The shooting looks like a hate crime, but Detectives Esa Khattak and Rachel Getty sense there is more to the story. Sent to liaise with a community in the grip of fear, they find themselves in fraught new territory, fueled by the panic and suspicion exploited by a right-wing radio host.

As Rachel and Esa grapple to stop tensions shutting the case down entirely, all the time, someone is pointing Esa in another direction, a shadowy presence who anticipates his every move.

A Deadly Divide is a piercingly observed, gripping thriller that reveals the fractures that try to tear us all apart: from the once-tight partnership between Detectives Esa and Rachel to the truth about a deeply divided nation.

I have been binging this series for the past few months and this was the first book that left me a little disappointed. I loved the mystery and, as always, felt like I could really identify with the main characters, Esa and Rachel, but, in this story, I found that the romance plots were getting a little too much screen time and I was really surprised to have a storyline I considered absolutely integral to plot end the novel completely unaddressed. I am hoping things pick up and conclude a bit more in the next novel, but, with no clear release plan that I could see, I would have loved a bit of advance warning that this does have some aspects of a cliffhanger ending.
