Needing
Getting calls from the dead in the middle of the night isn’t Oliver’s idea of fun…
Oliver gets calls from the dead, imploring him to help them find their killers. He’s heard them since he was a child and now assists the police in their investigations. He works closely with Detective Langham—and has steadily fallen more in love with him every day of the six months he’s known him. But does Langham feel the same? Is Langham even gay?
When Oliver answers the call of a dead woman, he finds himself standing in a remote field, gazing down at her corpse. Someone else is out there with him, though, watching, waiting to cause him harm. After he’s run off the road, Oliver has no choice but to aid Langham in finding her killer—no choice because more people are killed and more people call out to him…he’s unable to ignore their pleas.
As the body count grows and the investigation becomes more complex, Oliver realises that Langham is indeed very gay—and out to make Oliver his.

This was a great read, OK so it's an older UF series, where a powerful psychic helps the police solve murders with a certain detective (yes cliché I know), but if book #1 is the standard set for the rest of the series then I'm looking forward to reading all of them. Needing was a fantastically written psychological thriller, that kept you on your toes constantly guessing what the hell was going on. The plot was total cloak and dagger and had me guessing right up to the end

Oliver is called by the dead to find their killers and assists the police in locating dead bodies, his contact is Detective Langham a man he has found himself falling in love with but he doesn't even know if Langham is gay. Oliver finds himself in the middle of a field after answering the call of a dead woman, soon after he is chased and driven off the road and Oliver knows it is the killer. Langham and Oliver work closer than ever before to track down the killer and the mystery of the sugar strands, and as more bodies pile up and suspicion is rampant, Langham makes his move and makes it clear to Oliver just how gay he is.
This story has a great premise of a psychic helping the police solve murders, but I found it sadly lacking in some areas. Oliver goes when the voices call, he goes to the bodies of the recently murdered and he helps the police locate the killers, but this new murder hits closer to home when he realizes he interrupted the killer. Oliver is also in love with his police contact Langham and it is an awkward dance as the two finally change their relationship in the midst of the investigation. There is also the chase to catch the killer as more people are murdered in brutal fashion, it is gory and bloody, and they discover that children are being experimented on.
The relationship between Langham and Oliver was confusing at first because they were constantly picking at each other and cursing each other out, I would not have called it a friendship at all, but then Oliver explains it is just the way they are with each other. Their relationship heats up as they work closely together and they track the leads, they face some homophobia from a fellow detective but don't let it effect what is developing between them. The one thing that got me more than anything was that we never learn Langham's first name, Oliver only ever calls him Langham and even thinks of him that way all the time and it made me feel the lack of real intimacy between them.
I really wanted to love this story because the blurb pulled me right in but I just couldn't. The storyline and plot was pretty good with the mystery of the murders and who was behind it all, and the investigation into the murder/s was exciting and intriguing, but, (and this is where I vent like a teenager) I gather that the setting is in England and while the author has done a fair job with the investigation she should have watched reruns of The Bill (an old British cop show) or A Touch Of Frost (British CID drama) to see the real workings of the 'Detectives' in England. (CID is the Criminal Investigation Department or Coppers In Disguise LOL)
I will recommend this to those who don't have a clue about British police, who love psychic's and murder investigations, love mystery and mayhem, a relationship that is both frustrating and passionate and a pretty good ending.

I have mixed feelings about this book. I thought the writing was ok and the idea of a person who speaks to the dead in order to solve crimes is a good one. I really like the Psycop series and although this series is different the idea is similar. The only difference is that Victor Bane in Psycop is a really interesting character while the two main characters here felt a bit flat for me. All they did was swear a lot. In fact they swore a great deal. I just didn't warm to the main characters. They seemed to have an attraction towards each other but it seemed quite clinical and lacked emotion.
Although the story is paranormal I still think it needs to be realistic and the police behaviour didn't ring true. The idea of such openly belligerent homophobia in the British police force in 2013 (when the book was published) is rather odd. Of course racism, homophobia, etc still exist in our UK public institutions including the police, but the homophobic abuse in the story first of all is illegal and would be grounds for a court case and all kinds of judicial action. Homophobia, racism, sexism is so much more subtle in the police force and it would have been more realistic to see this portrayed in a way that is experienced today.
The main characters swore a lot at each other and about their colleague (who they didn't like) and about everything else. F**k was used in some form well over 250 times. It gave me headache. The main characters are supposed to be responsible adults but they swore like rude teenagers and I found this irritating.
So the ideas in the story were good but I don't think the characters were engaging enough for me and all the blips and f's were distracting. I know this is the first book in a series and often first books set the scene. I think I am interested enough to read more but I am not in a hurry to do so.

Review written for The Blog of Sid Love.
This story starts out quite interesting. Oliver is contacted by the recently dead hoping he can help solve their mysterious deaths and catch the killers. Most of the police value his ability, most importantly Langham, who he is partnered with. Oliver and Langham have a great relationship. When the story begins, they are still only friends and colleagues. They have great chemistry and tease and smart talk each other relentlessly.
The main focus of this story, however, is the mystery surrounding the most recent dead bodies. More is uncovered in their investigation, leading to and surrounding the drugged children. Even though much of the abuse, etc. where the children are concerned, is implied or takes place off the page, so this is not nearly as dark as it first seemed it would be.
Again, the romance/relationship takes somewhat of a back seat to the mystery/investigation. For obvious reasons, once the guys realize they are headed in that direction, they are unable to act upon it until the investigation is finished. This takes about 70% of the story. During that time, there is a bit of sexual tension to get you through. I was a bit disappointed in this aspect, even though I really enjoyed the banter between them. Unfortunately, it really wouldn’t have worked out any other way.
With this being the first book of the series, I am hopeful that now that the setup has taken place, we will get to see more of their relationship in the following book.

Loved, loved , loved the chemistry between Oliver and Langham. They were kindred spirits and you have no doubt that they will last as couple. However, and this is all on me and nothing against the book or the author, the British speak was way over my head. I was constantly knocked out of the story because I just couldn't grasp what was being said or what was meant in a sentence. For example, in the US pissed means your mad or angry, in Britain it means your drunk? I think. And fuck has so many different meanings in this story, except for sex, yep, I was struggling. But like I said, it was all on me. The book takes place in England so I give it points for being location specific. :-))
Now just so you know, this is a mystery first with the romance secondary. It is also not a sex fest, so if that's your cuppa then look elsewhere. The first sex scene actually doesn't even occur until about 71% into the book, so if sexual tension is your thing, then this may be the book for you.
Don't let the warning at the end of the blurb scare you off. Most of the horrible things that happened to the kids were off the pages and you read about it after the fact. I know that might still be a bit much for some, but for me it was not an issue.
Even though it was a 3 star book for me, I still recommend it, especially because the one guy called the other a man-bitch (jokingly)...and that was just too funny!

The premise of this story was great but the lack of depth in the characters made this a just OK read for me. We never did find out why the tests were being done.

Loved it! Good pacing, great premise, and hot guy loving. And I loved the English slang! Excellent start to the series.
May 28, 2013
I enjoyed this book more than I should have. I say that because looking back over it I keep picking out things to grumble about. It is not really a romance because the relationship sort of seems to take a back seat to the investigation. We don't really get to know the characters that well. Coming into the book they have already known each other for six months and learned about each other during that time, but we don't really experience any of that. We get little glimpses here and there about them, but not really much in depth knowledge. Still, I enjoyed them together, and was amused by their sniping at each other and when they do finally "get together" I found it endearing how freaked out Oliver got.
The mystery. Wasn't really a mystery? If I remember correctly the whole thing takes place during one or two days? Or maybe I missed a line where more time went by, sometimes I skim. *sheepish grin* Either way, it felt like it went by really fast. I think with a longer time period the "mystery" aspect might have been a little more interesting and it would have given more time for the romance to develop. And I felt that we never really get a lot of details on the why and how. But it was engaging enough and with the bodies piling up there were plenty of opportunities for Oliver to talk to ghosts. Which is always cool. Maybe that is why I liked the book as much as I did. I'm a sucker for psychics. :)
The biggest nitpick for me, which may seem pretty small to others, was an oops on the author's part. I get close to the end of the book and they are going to the morgue to look at the first dead body. Oliver makes a big (internal) deal out of it, with mentions of how he has never been to the morgue before and the way the smell and atmosphere, etc affect him. I think there were two or three paragraphs detailing it. Only...I was sure he had said something early on in the book about the cops making him go to the morgue to try and get a dead guy to talk that hadn't come to him already. (If I remember correctly the old guy basically told him to sod off. lol) Thank goodness for the search function, because I am lazy. Yes, there we are, fairly close to the beginning of the book and Oliver HAS been to the morgue once. So, yeah, that sort of nagged at me, like sand in a shoe. Might not bother other people as much.

Oliver hears spirits speak to him and helps a detective Langham to solve their murders.
He also has a crush on the setective but up until now had done nothing about it.
The case that they are involved in is a serial killer and very gory.
The mystery was good with some red herrings and I kept guessing right up until the end.
The development of the relationship seemed to take second place to the main mystery which was fine. The sex when it came was explosive.
I will certainly be reading further books in this series.

Very good. Oliver has the dead contact him to let the cops know where their bodies are so their murders can be solved. On this case, Oliver becomes more involved and helps his contact in the police station solve the multiple murder case. Oliver and Langham follow the leads to finally solve the strange case of drugged murderers.

October 29, 2013DNF. I picked this up because it was on sale and sounded sort of Psycop-ish, but the mystery just didn't engage me. I did skim ahead to the sex scenes, which were very nice. (I'm shaking my head at multiple occurrences of "prostrate," though.)

I loved this book! From the start, I was drawn in to their world and it kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. I will wait patiently, I hope, for the next in the series.

Love this M/M book! The chemistry between Langham & Oliver is fantastic and I love the twists and turns in the plot. Had me on the edge of my seat the entire book.

Generally a pacy read, especially through the murder investigation sections.
Oliver and Langham have known each other for a while, flirted for a while and are finally getting somewhere.
I did find a lot of their early banter a bit ott at first, more akin to new acquaintances.
The murder investigations were fine, though the ultimate culprit was totally out of field. The demon issues kind of came and went but may be explored in further books - there are 8!
Oliver and Langham do get together and it will be interesting to see how that pans out - maybe they learn to communicate abiut their relationship bettter!

Despite the cover - I'd have gone for a picture of a police officer in a wood or something which made the mystery element much clearer - this is a supernatural mystery in which the psychic and the detective fall in love. They happen to be gay but apart from minor worries about homophobia, their sexual orientation and even the relationship are fairly small parts of the plot; the bigger issues are about people being forced/tricked into taking a drug which makes them into serial killers.

When Oliver answers a call from a ghost to find her body, he expects it to be just another routine sighting where he finds the corpse, calls the police and his part in the murder is done. Unfortunately, when Oliver is run off the road by the killer, the case turns personal for him especially when he aids Detective Langham in finding the murderer. But as the bodies stack up, Oliver and Langham discover more grizzly murders and the ghosts Oliver always relied on are proving distrustful. Can Oliver and Langham figure out who or what is causing all the murders? And will they be able to before even more people die?
I really, really loved the chemistry between Oliver and Langham. They had THE BEST banter I’ve ever read. They’ve known each other for months and have no issues with throwing insults at each other, all in good nature, of course. I just really loved that they had an easy, comfortable relationship. As characters, I really liked them as well. Oliver is sarcastic and funny as hell while Langham is more reserved but can throw out insults just as easily as Oliver does. I just adored that about them. It gave them the foundation to pursue a more intimate relationship because they both already had feelings for each other before anything more happened.
I had two major issues with this on. One, I found that the mystery grew a little convoluted and off track. I was really into it but it felt like the more the story progressed, the more the mystery seemed to lose its focus and just started including a lot of unnecessary additions to it. For instance, there were multiple ‘suspects’, which I was fine with, but each one had its own ‘crime’ associated with it and then by the end, they were all connected. I dunno, it just felt like it was going in circles and then by the end, the main person wasn’t even anyone who was a suspect and the reason behind why the sugar strands were being created was never mentioned. My second issue was with the British slang. I’m all for cultural dialect but this one was overflowing with it to the point that I couldn’t understand half the things Oliver or Langham said. Plus, every time they said ‘shit’ outside of what I’m used to it as (a curse word or as an actual poop), I couldn’t help but giggle.
In the end, I still enjoyed the book and I really loved the chemistry between Oliver and Langham. I was a tad confused on how Oliver was allowed to be Langham’s unofficial partner the whole time but that didn’t disturb me. The mystery started out great and interesting and then sort of dragged on too long, IMO. Either way, I’ll definitely continue reading the series just to see where Oliver and Langham go from here and what they get themselves into next.

Needing by Sarah Masters
This is book one in the Voices series.
This is the first book I have read by Sarah Maters and I have to say I really enjoyed it.
Oliver has a unique talent. He can hear and sometimes see dead people. The best thing about this is that he gets to work closely with Detective Langham. You see Oliver has a thing for this detective and but he is not sure if Langham is gay or not. Can you imagine working with someone for six months wanting and longing for them every day?
What will happen if Langham feels the same way? Can Oliver handle having a relationship or will he go running for the hills? Sarah does tell us but you have to read it to find out for yourself. Now onto Wanting, the number two in the series to see what these two get into. I can’t wait! I received this book as a gift from the author.

Creo que podía haber sido mucho mejor. La historia me ha gustado mucho. Me ha parecido original y me ha encantado cómo se desarrolla la investigación, porque no es la típica de siempre (en que te van dando pistas, y no se caza al culpable hasta el final y porque se descubre por accidente o incluso por autoconfesión, aunque todos sepamos desde la página 3 quién es). Da la sensación de lo que debe ser una investigación policial de verdad. Suceden cosas, se envía a detener a los sospechosos ¡que son encontrados y detenidos!, esto lleva a más implicados, más profundidad de investigación, más detenciones... etc.
Entonces ¿por qué la puntuación flojita? porque los diálogos entre los personajes son un castaña, su forma de interactuar de patio de colegio y las escenas de sexo un poco ridículas.

What I do not like is when story starts with already something happening. We meet a guy name Oliver in some field looking over some death women. He is talking with her spirit and analizing how she died. After a while or rather reading few more pages we got to know that he has ability to talk with death people and that he is helping police when they need him. He is partnered with a guy named Langham. In addition, we get to see that Oliver is in love with his partner. They are working together over six months. New case is nothing special and it did not pull me in.
December 17, 2016
Wow, what a fascinating book!! Oliver hears the voices of the dead and uses them to help the police to solve their murders. He finds himself wrapped up in the case of a serial killer when he goes to the scene of a woman's body and is run off the road by the killer. He has been fighting his attraction for Detective Langham for months and this case throws them closer together. I was guessing until the end and the sexual tension between the MCs was exquisite! I added book 2 to my TBR immediately after finishing and can't wait to read more about these two!
February 28, 2017
Just ok
Was ok I guess...I couldn't really connect to either characters...the mystery part had potential but for me it fell short..I guess the investigation just seemed lacking....some of it just not believable...I don't know if the British police procedures are different or if the author just didn't do her research ...either way I doubt I will continue the series...

I just couldn't get into it and felt no connection to the characters. gave up at 47%.

Cảm nhận chung về quyển này là truyện khá nhạt nhẽo. Đọc hết truyện rồi vẫn không hiểu sao Langham yêu Oliver thắm thiết đến thế.

interesting idea but overall the story felt rushed with too much crammed in.
