About this listen

Forty years ago something terrible happened in Annie's new house....

Annie Naden and her husband buy a remote country cottage at auction. It’s the home of their own that they always wanted, but as they begin renovations, Annie discovers a satchel in a dusty old hidden cupboard. Inside are the usual schoolbooks, now over 40 years old, and a girl’s diary. Among the record of day-to-day crushes and pop concerts is a secret whose terrible consequences are still resonating to this day.

Detective Tom Calladine has problems of his own. A notorious villain, Vinny Costello, seems to be back in town, and the bodies soon stack up. With Calladine’s loyal DS Ruth Bayliss on maternity leave, he gets in hot water with one of Costello’s assistants and must also cope with an abrasive new member of the team as they seek to untangle a complex series of murders.

What happened to that girl 40 years ago? And what’s it got to do with the current crime wave?

Am so enjoying this series, the main charecter is a right one for the women, or thinks he is. He is bit shallow only liking lookers, he is a good copper though. Good book & narrative. Thank you.

Another really good book.

This series gets better and better, characters are developed as the story goes on and perfectly performed by JK as usual. 6 & 7 are awaiting on my Ipod

Great!

The narrator has a beautiful speaking voice marred by his characterization of just about everybody when he sounds like a very old uneducated person with a heavy cold. The stories are however, pretty good.

Love the stories, hate the characters voices

But as others have said there are a lot of characters in this book and it’s hard to remember who’s who at times. Still enjoyed it. Narration superb as always

Excellent
