About this listen

DCI Lesley Clarke is back!

The dust has settled after the arrest of DCI Mackie's killer and Lesley has been told to make a few changes. She's got two DIs to manage, including one she's clashed with in the past, and is overseeing the return of a colleague who left Dorset under a cloud.

Just as she's starting to get to grips with it all, a body is found in Poole Harbour. Is it Jackie Kendal, who went missing a year ago, or Rowena Sharp, who mysteriously vanished after leaving her baby alone in a Sandbanks hotel in 1973?

Establishing the body's identity, and therefore whose case this will be, will require Lesley's investigatory skills and, more challenging, all of her tact and diplomacy.

The Poole Harbour Murders heralds the return of the much-loved DCI Lesley Clarke and her Dorset team in the award-winning series that's sold over a million copies.

A different slant on the series and really enjoyed it. Love following the investigation in hand, along with the broader storyline that spans the series. A great listen!

Great cold case murder mystery

This has been the first book in the series to disappoint so far. Narration was excellent as usual but was not a fan of the characters and dynamics in this book. It just didn’t grab my interest like others in the series. Hopefully the series picks up again with the next book as I really love the authors other works and previous books in this series

Not as good as the rest of the series so far

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Seems a very watered down version of a series I loved. Not sure if I will bother again

Not up to the usual standard
