About this listen

Who killed Gray Mitchell?

Gray Mitchell’s body is found buried under fresh snowfall in the early hours of the morning outside Stromford Cathedral. DI Jim Neal and DS Ava Merry are called in to investigate. It seems that a number of people had motives to kill him, including Mitchell's partner.

Then another shocking act of violence occurs, also connected to the cathedral. Detectives Neal and Merry’s investigation reveals an intricate web of secrets connecting the crimes. But there is something the detectives have missed, the dark secret which can break open the case.

In a breathtaking climax, Jim Neal fights for the life of someone very close to him.

2nd in this series, it was a great story. Author, the characters and narrator were great as before.

Another great listen from this series.

I so enjoy the characters in the book. The developing partnership of the DI and his sergeant, and characters personal to each of them. The storyline keeps a good pace and is clever, keeping one guessing. I’m looking forward to reading the next in the series.
