About this listen

Detective Inspector Faro has reopened the case of the 'Gruesome Convent Murders' for which one murderer has already been caught and executed, although he claimed to be innocent of the second murder. Faro's stepson Vince is determined to help with the detection. Behind the middle-class exterior of Victorian Edinburgh society lie betrayal and greed. The list of prime suspects is long because many had good reason for silencing the lovely, exotic, and amoral Lily Goldie, and even a police colleague is under suspicion.

Alanna Knight is still writing new mysteries and has just written her fiftieth novel. Enter Second Murderer is the first in the series featuring Detective Inspector Faro.

Would you listen to Enter Second Murderer again? Why?

Possibly - but only if I had nothing else to listen to. The story is good but the narration by Robert Powell is poor - definitely not his best performance.

How could the performance have been better?

The attempt at Scottish accents was dreadful. The story is set in Edinburgh and yet many of the characters were given Glasgow accents. I wish whoever selects narrators would select Scottish readers for Scottish stories. The false accents grate on the ear.

Any additional comments?

I have listened to, and enjoyed, all of Alanna Knight's 'Rose McQuinn' series - about Scots and read by Scots but this was a disappointment.

Good story spoilt by the narration
