Liverpool, 1999. Skeletal remains found in the docklands lead Detective Inspector Andy Ross and Sergeant Izzie Drake into a journey through time as the investigation takes them back to early days of the Mersey Beat.

Found this book quite moving - lost love and unfulfilled dreams. I know nothing of the police apart from reading novels, but I felt as though this had realism and professionalism that is lacking in a lot of police procedurals. Good story - listened in one sitting. Narrator had some strange pronunciations and random pauses in dialogue BUT was very good at being able to differentiate between characters.

Enjoyed

I enjoyed the storyline of this novel, the characters were relatable. However the narration left a bit to be desired with mispronunciations my favourite being a member of the press corps pronounced corpse. Also the Americanisation is annoying. In the UK emergency vehicles have blue lights and we perform a post mortem not an autopsy petty I know but working in the NHS these things really annoy.

Good plot

Well written. Enjoyed the time difference in the story & the references to the music of the sixties.
Narrated as though reading a shopping list...
