Just not very nice
I found this actually pretty horrid, it has some nasty bits with dead animals in it that I wished I'd known about before I brought it.

well-plotted and well-read
This book is the one in which Markby and his future wife Meredith first meet. It is a good story that keeps one wanting to listen. There are quite a few characters to remember, but they are brought alive by the writer and the excellent reading by Judith Boyd.

Instantly forgettable
I only finished this last week and I had to return to the book details to remind myself what it was about. Not a good sign.
I suppose if you're after a read that doesn't challenge you AT ALL then this is fit for purpose. Nevertheless, this doesn't make it any better than a 25p charity shop offering, though.
The narrator does an creditable job with relatively sub-standard material.

Fun listen.
This was fun to listen to. It is well produced. The plot allows plenty of opportunity for guessing who dunnit, should you wish.

Interesting cosy-ish crime thriller
I first read this book back in the 1990s and really enjoyed it. About 25 years later I have listened on Audible and I have to admit I found it a little dated, and it took me a while to get into it. However once I did get into it I was hooked and didn't want to stop listening.
Not sure whether I will listen to more in the series, but it was nice to revisit this as an audiobook.

Irritating
I love cosy crime novels, but it was hard going to finish this one. The figures are flat and irritating, the plot endlessly drawn out.

Excellent mystery novel
I really enjoyed the story and was rooting for the characters. A great start to a series of stories.
