About this listen

The unusual, romantically attached crime-solving duo return to investigate a ruthless murder!

Charming film writer and director Geraint Denbigh is found lifeless in the garden of his Welsh home. It looks like he fell from a window, but eagle-eyed Detective Chief Inspector Matt Lambert soon finds irregularities in the crime scene. Before long he determines it was murder.

Recently retired, the victim was writing about his eventful life and many of his former colleagues and associates could have had reason to stop him before he spilled the beans on their transgressions.

Lambert's girlfriend and ex-boss, Fabia Havard, knew Denbigh and decides to help from the sidelines. Will they manage to single out the person with most to gain by the gentleman's disappearance? Or have they both been led up the garden path?

Find out in this truly gripping classic whodunnit-style murder mystery staged in a beautiful rural Welsh setting, painted by the author with masterful strokes.

A classy murder mystery with a great setting. A local celebrity found dead. Havard and Lambert on the case again, although Favia being heavily pregnant reduces her to a supporting role in this one, which allows Matt to shine a bit more. Great characters, good suspects and a twist at the end I didn't expect. Another entertaining well written story from a talented writer. Evan Llwyd does a really great job narrating the story and nails the accents. Highly recommended.

Kept my interest throughout. Believable storyline & I particularly enjoyed the variety of Welsh accents (one narrator). Easy to follow during my numerous dog walks.

Enjoyable characters.

Not sure if there are any more books in the pipeline for this series but if not it was a nice ending. Good storyline and I didn’t see who the killer was until near the end which I do like.
