About this listen

Dead Guilty by Michelle Davies is the captivating fourth novel in the critically acclaimed Maggie Neville crime series, following False Witness.

Has the killer in DC Maggie Neville’s cold case returned after a decade of silence?

Katy Pope was seventeen when she was brutally murdered on a family holiday in Majorca. Despite her mother’s high rank in the Met and the joint major investigation between the British and Spanish police, Katy’s killer was never caught.

Ten years later, Katy’s family return to the Spanish island to launch a fresh appeal for information, taking with them the now skeletal team of investigating Met detectives, and newly seconded Maggie as the family liaison officer.

But Maggie’s first international investigation quickly goes from being more than just a press conference when another British girl there on holiday goes missing, and Katy’s killer announces that it’s time for an encore . . .

Started off good, but soon got silly. Would have been solved first time round and blatant red herrings made it silly. How many times could the author use the word flo! It got annoying.

Not as enjoyable as previous books.

Quite disappointed with this one as the story line was rather ridiculous and all the accents put on by the narrator were cringey!

A bit silly with ridiculous accents

I really enjoyed the first three books in this series, this one though, just didn’t hit the mark. The storyline was good but towards the end it became too unbelievable leaving me feeling a bit Mheh when the book ended.

Not the best
