For all its old-fashioned charm, Forbes Abbot is far from the close-knit community that ex-Londoners Mallory and Kate Lawson expected. In this village, everyday squabbles can quickly turn to murder.

As the couple begins to settle into their new life away from the big city, it isn't long until they're thrown into the horror and mayhem of a true Midsomer Murders mystery.

Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby has encountered many intriguing cases in his years on the force, but soon he will discover that the incident of the ghost in the machine is the most challenging of them all.

Eleştirmen yorumları

'[A Ghost in the Machine] allows us to admire the novelist's wit and her ability to create exasperatingly real characters before getting down to the policing.' (Sunday Telegraph)
'A mystery of which Agatha Christie would have been proud.' (The Times)

'Tension builds, bitchery flares, resentment seethes...lots of atmosphere, colourful characters and fair clues.' (Mail on Sunday)

The narration is excellent, so many different characters. Got lost at times but gradually got into the swing of it. Listened over 4 sittings.
I love the ending where there was a round up of all the "stories".
Waiting for the next one to be available on Audio.

Incredible writing- plotting, characterisation all amazing coupled with gripping surprises! What a writer! And I’ve now read them all - what a disappointment- I’ll have to start again.

Amazing!

I love the Barnaby series, however he was hardly in this story and wasn’t particularly his barnaby self in my opinion. Good, enjoyable listen and I’d listen again, but just not my favourite in the series.

Enjoyable

This is unlike previous Midsomer Murders books. It’s set in Midsomer and there are murders but nearly all the action focuses on the characters and their developing storylines. This gives the listener a deeper experience; a chance to get really involved in the story. There are a number of sub plots which adds to the depth.

Each character is fully fleshed out - even the minor ones. I enjoyed their stories no matter how unpleasant some of them were. There is redemption and resolution. The who-did-it aspect is there for those who love their murder mysteries. And it’s as satisfying a twist as you could hope for. But for me the strength of this book lies in the characterisation. Also great wit as well as insight.

And the narration is absolutely superb. Very highly recommend this audiobook.

Wonderful character and plot-driven story
