Nice easy listening, stories are told well and refreshingly the accents were pretty good. I am going to listen to the next box set so that’s tells you something. Two downsides however. The book is very misanthropic, almost without exception the men in the books are either bumbling idiots, corrupt, useless or cheats, where as most female characters are clever sharp, quick witted and are exceptional at their jobs. Please please notice I said MOST not all. The other problem is that the two DC’s both sound like breathless over excited teenagers. That may be simply be down to the narrator but it’s a bit off putting especially when they interview witnesses and sound like over excited puppies. Small points but still most enjoyable

Very entertaining,
