When a teenage girl is found dead in the woods, her body posed like an angel, Stockholm holds its breath. The kill bears a chilling resemblance to those of the Angel Maker, a serial killer caught two decades ago.... One who just died in prison. Detective Inspector Jamie Johansson is taking some much-needed time away from the London Met when the call comes in. Her father, one of Stockholm's most notorious detectives, caught the Angel Maker when she was just a girl, and Jamie has long since closed the door to that part of her life.

How Good Can a Series Be?
It's probably not worth reading my reviews of this series any more. I just enjoy them so much, all I need to hear is the words 'County Hotel' or 'Hamish eyed his empty glass' from the excellent David Monteath and I am transported to Kinloch and it's wonderful atmosphere. In fact so much have I fallen for this quaint Scottish town that just happens to be the centre of half the world's mystery and intrigue that the potential fate of one of Kinloch's prize institutions had me gripped as much as the latest Daley adventure!
That story is another clever mystery, one of the more laid back ones but it still involves some interesting people coming into Kinloch from abroad. It's slightly more of a slow burner than some of the others but it has a real kicker of an ending that will have you reaching for your own wee dram before the conclusion.
If you've read the previous books then you know what to expect from Daley, Scott and those who inhabit Kinloch. If not, then you could reasonably read this one first and enjoy it but you would be doing yourself a disservice. There is so much joyous character to this series that it should probably be an arrestable offence to not take it all in from the beginning and watch as this grim yet beautiful Scottish town and its characters come to life.
Meyrick has created something very special and I hope he can keep this up for a long time yet, Add in the silky David Monteath as narrator and you have what is clearly one of Audible's winning combinations.

What a fantastic book, series, everything!!!
I have been hooked on this series from the word go! This needs to be a Netflix tv show! The ongoing story (now number 8) I’ve been here for all the highs and lows and regardless I love love love what Denzil does every time. I don’t know where to begin... don’t want to ruin it for you but if you have not already! Get the first one and start....

Well worth the wait
The wait seemed interminable after the ending of the previous book and my shout of 'noooooo'. When I started reading the book, I again shouted 'nooo', and put it down. I started listening to the Audiobook shortly after when I was queueing for the supermarket and was quickly swept up in the story. Worrying times for me with DCI Daley's health issues at times as I had a heart scare years ago and could empathise with his fears, but this added to the build up of the story.
Absolutely brilliant. The twist at the end to what I had expected was terrific. I'm doing my usual re-read/re-listen as I enjoy going over the story knowing what's happened.
Wonderful story. Superb narration as usual by David Monteath of course.
Mr Meyrick, you've done it again. As said above. Absolutely brilliant. I'd give 10 stars if I could.

Storytelling at its best
These books are going from strength to strength. Denzil Meyrick’s writing and the narration by David Monteath are a match made in heaven. The main storyline in Jeremiah’s Bell is gripping but for me the real joy in the book are the characters and sub plots that Denzil has crafted over the series so far. They are simply wonderful.

Awful
I got this because of the good reviews. Have I just listened to a completely different book? I found the story ridiculous. It was really slow to begin, not till about a third of the way through did I have much idea that it was even a thriller. I listened to the end as I kept thinking something must elevate the story to something akin to excitement.
There seemed to be many points where the story meandered into some vague sort of philosophical thought on the part of the hero, or worse, irrelevant description.
Neither did I like the narration. Women were often given a prissy sort of querulous tone, the female police chief’s voice reminded me of Wallace. Or Grommit. Whichever. Like the author, by the end I’d lost the plot.
I love audiobooks. But this? Nope.

Completely riveting, exceptional storytelling.
Jeremiah’s Bell is the 8th outing for DCI Daley and the now Acting Inspector Brian Scott . Jim Daley has been given the go ahead to return to work following his misadventures at the end of his last case and although he’s keen to get back to his job, he’s still haunted by thoughts of his own mortality. His faithful sidekick Brian Scott can’t wait to have him back, desperate to rid himself of all the bureaucracy and paperwork the role of inspector brings.
Before long the two are embroiled in the mystery of whether a newly arrived, wealthy, American business woman Alison Wenger is connected to the disappearance of a young woman, Alison Doig, 30 years earlier. As the team begin to investigate, someone is very keen that past secrets should not be uncovered and will kill to ensure they remain hidden.
This series of books is superb. The characters are richly drawn, the landscape of the kintyre peninsula so evocatively described, and the stories so intricately woven.
Once again David Monteath puts in a stellar performance as narrator and he brings a superb story to life.
A resounding 5 stars from me.
