Summary
Brighton, 1957.
Mirabelle Bevan can't resist a cry for help, be it the little girl at a seaside sanatorium who is getting bullied or the strange behaviour of Uma, the Indian nurse who is looking after her. Intrigued, she soon finds herself drawn into a spider's web of connections between an upmarket brothel, local priest Father Grogan, a man's body washed up on Brighton beach and a missing nursing sister.
Attracted to handsome police doctor Chris Williams, Mirabelle is determined to finally put her love affair with Jack Duggan behind her and recover from the betrayal of Superintendent Alan McGregor, but the police force in Brighton is undergoing a sea change that keeps leading her back to the sanatorium at the epicentre of a spate of brutal killings. And very soon it becomes apparent Mirabelle is in much more danger than she realises....

"With sharp blows delivered for gender and racial equality, Sheridan's story builds to a chilling climax." (Daily Mail)

Excellent story but chapter 29 is missing
I have only listened to this book in the Mirabelle Bevan series - having read the others - and I was not disappointed until chapter 29 (chapter 30 on the audible chapter list). Most of the chapter is missing and of course that chapter explains what has been happening all along. I have reported the problem to Audible, but until they can find the sound file - you need to either get the book and read the missing chapter (with whisper) or read the chapter somehow. Otherwise the performance is excellent and the book takes the characters forward in a way that is somewhat melancholy (very much in keeping with 1950s Brighton perhaps) but also with a very gripping story beautifully read.
