Summary

Who will return home - and who will be sacrificed to the island? 

The Greek Island Killer is the first in Francis Lloyd’s Detective Inspector Jack Dawes mysteries. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, L. J. Ross, J. R. Ellis, Angela Marsons or Faith Martin.

Detective Inspector Jack Dawes and his bride, Corrie, join eight other holidaymakers bound for a tiny Greek island, ready for a bit of sun, sea and sand.  

Mayhem ensues when a storm destroys the island’s primitive communications, cutting it off from civilisation. It’s a perfect opportunity for murder.

First one victim is poisoned, followed swiftly by another. Then a woman is found badly beaten in a quiet cove and a body is found in a grotto to St. Sophia, the island’s patron saint. The island’s visitors are being picked off one by one. 

Can Jack uncover the truth before the killer ups the ante? Who will return home - and who will be sacrificed to the island?

Pleasantly surprised

I got this without reading the reviews which are on the whole negative. But if you’re looking for something light & very easy to listen to them I would recommend it. I personally didn’t have a problem with the narrator.

Worst book I’ve ever I’ve listened to

The story was fantasy and unrealistic rubbish
The storyteller was dull and boring
I only finished it to make sure it had an ending

Don’t do it. Waste of a credit

I bought this because I like the genre and it came up on recommended so why not I thought!
The narration is awful. There’s something wrong with the pitch and tone. It feels too light and lacking in gravitas for the content. Also it’s monotonous- all too upbeat when talking about crime!!!
I can’t comment on the plot or storyline as the narrator put me off.
I only lasted 30 mins.
