About this listen

A breathtaking, twisty adventure, A Place to Bury Strangers is the second Atticus Priest mystery.

A dog walker finds a human bone on lonely Salisbury Plain. DCI Mackenzie Jones investigates the grisly discovery but cannot explain how it ended up there. She contacts disgraced ex-detective Atticus Priest and the two of them trace the bone to a graveyard in the nearby village of Imber. But the village was abandoned after it was purchased by the Ministry of Defence to train the army, so why have bodies been buried in the graveyard since the church was closed?

At the same time, Atticus is approached by a single dad who needs his help to track down his missing daughter. Atticus takes on the case and finds himself battling a London gang who are selling their drugs in Salisbury and a host of witnesses who don't seem to be telling him the truth.

Atticus and Mack deal with the fiendishly complex case and unpick a conspiracy that cuts to the heart of the English establishment - while dealing with their own feelings for one another.

I just love Atticus, he reminds me of my brother, who is no longer with us.
I need more.

Page turner

I enjoyed this story even if the content was a little uncomfortable toward the end. The narration, however, was truly awful. The narrator is incapable of holding an accent for more than several words in a row.
One particular confession seemed to have the speaker taking a trip around the UK with a few international stops for good measure. It wasn't good in the first book, but he has surpassed himself this time.

Good story, truly awful narration.

Highly recommended.
