About this listen
They think as one. They act as one. They kill as one.
‘Look Both Ways is devilishly good – exciting, thrilling – Barclay at his best!’ SHARI LAPENA, No. 1 internationally bestselling author
The residents of Garrett Island are part of a ground-breaking experiment. For a month, their cars will be replaced by self-driving vehicles – voice-controlled, comfortable and safe.
Single mum Sandra is prepping for the huge media event, and she’s ready for a driverless future. Widowed after her husband fell asleep at the wheel, she’s relieved that her kids may never need to drive themselves.
But as the day gets underway, disaster strikes. A journalist vanishes, possibly murdered. And before long, it’s clear something is very wrong. The cars are no longer taking orders from their passengers. They’re starting to organise. They’re starting to hunt. And they’ve got the residents of Garrett Island in their sights.
From the Sunday Times Number One bestseller Linwood Barclay comes a breakneck new thriller, Look Both Ways.

Not the best from Linwood
I’m a fan of this author, but I felt this was one of his weaker offerings.
I didn’t really like the narrator, I found him a little nasally on delivery, although the performance overall was good.
I felt it was a bit predictable - single mum, two kids in peril etc etc.
It won’t stop me reading more of his work and I still don’t understand why his books aren’t all dramatised!

Very boring narrator
I persevered with this but it was very boring. I usually like Linwood Barclay but not this time. I kept drifting off and then having to re-listen

Quirky and gripping bit of near future dystopia
It may not be Linwood Barclay’s standard fare but this is hugely entertaining and very nearly believable. He sketches great family characters and makes you care. Shades of Stephen King’s Desperation here, but that’s no crime. Thoroughly enjoyed it. And I’m pretty sure I’m never going to get into any car driven by a computer!
