About this listen

An impossible murder behind a locked door. Can DCI Oldroyd find the key to the mystery?

Lord Redmire’s gambling habit has placed him in serious debt. Determined to salvage his fortune by putting Redmire Hall on the map, the aristocrat performs an impossible locked-door illusion on live TV. But as the cameras roll, his spectacular trick goes fatally wrong....

Special guest DCI Jim Oldroyd has a front-row seat, but in all his years with the West Riding Police he’s never witnessed anything like this. He sees Redmire disappear—and then reappear, dead, with a knife in his back.

As Oldroyd and DS Stephanie Johnson soon discover, nearly everyone at the event had a reason to resent the eccentric lord. But how did the murderer get into the locked room—or out, for that matter?

When the only other person who knew the secret behind the illusion is brutally silenced, the case begins to look unsolvable. Because as Oldroyd and Johnson know, it’s not just a question of who did it and why—but how?

The second book I have listened to with this narrator. Whilst the story is gripping and first rate I don't think I have ever heard such a poor Yorkshire accent. It makes all the characters sound as if they are old people and reflects nothing of the accents spoken by many Yorkshire friends.

Poor narration

Great plot twists

And so continues my binge listen of this series - it is so good and just wraps me up in a nice warm glow. It is a no nonsense police procedural with such a hint of Agatha Christie. There seems to be so much love for the area by the author and the descriptions are making me want to visit the area.

Cosy police procedural and works well
