About this listen

It's 1940 - France has fallen, and Britain stands alone against the might of the German war machine; a fierce battle for supremacy of the air rages in the skies as the Battle of Britain hits full stride.

For Chief Inspector Frank Parade and his much-depleted team, there are many challenges to policing the small Welsh mining village of Gilfach Goch, for while miles away from the theatres of war, the home front faces unique challenges of its own. The wartime demands thrown on the country mean that each officer in Parade’s team must do the work of two men - three even.

Soon, the already overwhelming workload is increased when not one, but two bodies turn up, and Parade finds himself having to investigate two murders as well as cope with everything else thrown his way.

This isan excellent world War 2 detective novel. Fast paced and well defined characters, not 1 but 2 murder victims, were they the work of 1 killer? you'll have to listen to this story to find out! What can i say about the narrator that hasn't been said before, Aubrey Parsons is brilliant! He really makes the book come alive, in this one his Welsh accent is perfect. If a narrator ever deserves 10 stars then Aubrey would be a hot contender. Highly recommended read.
I was kindly given this copy of the book by the narrator and have left this voluntary review.
