Great story again. Lots of comments here about poor audio. I did not have that problem. Maybe it was redone? As always narration was excellent.

Excellent. Bring on the next one

How does the author keep coming up with such gripping and original plots? I enjoyed this Bolitho book as much as any of the seven others i have listened to, and did not find any problem with the sound quality although I am quite particular about such details; perhaps it has been re-recorded to put right any previous problem?

Another great book, very well read

Great book, really enjoyable, my only criticism is it's very jarring where the narrator finishes one recording session and starts another and seemingly random interviews and stands at different distances to the microphone. Nevertheless he reads well and it's a good story.
