About this listen

From the number-one best-selling author of The Ashes of London and The Fire Court, this is the fourth instalment in the acclaimed Lydmouth series.

The Korean war rumbles in the background throughout this novel as a reporter is found murdered at the Bathurst Arms, squatters are evicted from a military camp and there are new developments in the three-year-old hunt for a missing teenager. And in spite of all that's going on, Jill Francis, a local journalist, and DI Richard Thornhill find they can no longer resist their feelings for each other.

I enjoyed this book but it hasn't totally overtaken me Although it's worth listening to

Good plot but not gripping

Philip Franks adds hugely to the wonderful writing of Andrew Taylor. The listener becomes part of the village. The accents are wonderful. It's almost as if you know; have met the locals who live and grumble about the place. And the police story is always plausible - even if the town has more that it's fair share of rogues.

Enchanting and enjoyable.

enthralling listen which keeps you guessing till the end. The character's are consistent. i do find that i have to go back to seek what i think i may have missed with the cut off and change of plot.

good listen
