About this listen

When a cantankerous old woman dies at her home in the sleepy, picturesque village of Bamburgh, DCI Ryan doesn’t think much of it—except, that is, for the small matter of it having been his wife who happened to find her body. Then another body turns up amongst the sand dunes at the base of the mighty castle fortress, and he decides it can’t be a coincidence....

Meanwhile, after a recent revelation about her sister, DC Melanie Yates’ quest to avenge her death is becoming an obsession—much to the concern of those around her. With a new DCS to contend with and hundreds of cold case files to sift through, the chances of uncovering a dormant killer seem unlikely. But as Melanie delves deeper into the secrets of the past to uncover the truth, she soon realises it lies much closer to home....

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit, set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

I listened to this over 2 days, it was wonderful. I love Jonathan Keeble reading these DCI Ryan mysteries, he is a brilliant narrator. The storyline was strong and kept my attention until the end. Well done, highly recommend.

I must admit I do like this series of books. Full of humor and suspense. The characters are strong and well round individuals that draw you into this story. Looking forward to the next book. 👍🏾👍🏾

I enjoyed the story as I always do. Lovely to get together again with the characters who feel like old friends. Laugh out loud moments in the exchanges between Ryan and his DS, Frank Phillips. But it felt like lots of the fabulous embellishments that usually feature were missing. Some may find all the side stories and descriptive details in a book to be just padding, but I love that. In all it made the story run faster and come to a conclusion but I felt I had a short break rather than a week's holiday!
Keebles emphatic performance was great as usual and his female voices are becoming more tolerable!

A weekend break rather than a holiday
