A priceless violin. And a dark secret someone is prepared to kill for.

DCI Oldroyd has seen his fair share of victims, but he has never witnessed a murder - until now. When world-famous violinist Hans Muller is shot and killed during a concert, the detective is faced with a case beyond logic. The culprit is nowhere to be found - and the victim’s priceless violin has disappeared too.

As Oldroyd investigates the mystery of the murderer’s identity and the motive for the killing, he enters the ruthless world of wealthy instrument collectors and stumbles upon a dark path where shocking secrets have been buried in the past. But the secrets will soon take centre stage.

Oldroyd must use all his cunning to recover the priceless instrument. But can he also solve the mystery of a murderer who vanished in front of his own eyes?

Revised edition: This edition of The Quartet Murders includes editorial revisions.

We love the down to Earth detectives in the story's and the twists in the storylines. Very enjoyable.

Down to Earth detectives

A big improvement on number 1! The narrator is still somewhat difficult to listen to as he had an querulous quality to his voice for so many characters. The variety of voice is good but who do most people seem to be around 90 years old in their voices? Nevertheless, the story is interesting & the accuracy of detail is excellent.

A definite improvement.

This is the 2nd book in the Yorkshire murder stories and how refreshing to hear about all the town's and villages in God's own county, even Michael's accent is growing in me. I would highly recommend these books and I can't wait to purchase the next one in the series.

Another good book!!

It gives people food for thought, that you never know what goes on in people's minds, although it concerns religious institutions, it also affects all institutions.

thought provoking

Enjoyed the story but took a while to be able to listen for longer periods, at the beginning I wasn't over keen on the voices of the narrator but I did gradually get used to it. Think I will listen to the rest of the series before starting anything else, that way the narration won't bother me as much (I hope)

Good plot
