A dangerous mourning-very engrossing
Where does A Dangerous Mourning rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Thought I would give Anne Perrys William Monk 'ago', this was the second book in this series I have listened to and I am hooked.
This story was engrossing right to the end and I actually gasped at the' reveal.'
You can feel the two main characters gaining respect for each other, and I'm sure they will get closer in time, which is another aspect to the story.
Davina Porters narration is pefect, she has a lovely lilt to her voice which encourages you to listen for hours.
What was one of the most memorable moments of A Dangerous Mourning?
The memorable moment was the reveal
What does Davina Porter bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
She has a lovely voice, not annoying at all
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When William was sacked, in my mind I was shouting at his boss ' YOU IDIOT' I hope back in Victorian times that the police force were not like you, but sadly I think they were

An enjoyable listen.
A good solid listen from a competent writer. It?s all here: period detail and atmosphere; a well constructed plot and believable characters. If you like a mystery set in the nineteenth century; this one won?t let you down. Perhaps it?s a little slow and ponderous in parts and the ending is rather abrupt but the measured pace is in keeping with the period setting. Don?t start with this book though; they?re written to be listened to in series
