About this listen

Artist Alexander Kinloch has worked out a good pattern for his life. His home is a small bothy on a remote mountain in Scotland; he paints on commission, from which he derives both pleasure and a decent income; he lives alone and likes it.

One day, however, Alexander's peace is violently shattered when he returns home to find a group of strangers waiting for him. After a scuffle, he is left for dead with only the words ‘‘Where is it?' ringing in his ears. The days that follow contain more danger than he could ever imagine.

A very clever read but a bit too long winded for me but still I read it to the end.

Good

This is my favourite Dick Francis Book but I have never hear it read out loud. It was wonderful and made the journey to and from Kirkcudbrightshire pulling a horse so easy!
Highly recommended

Brilliant

I really enjoyed the story, it was clever and well written. the poor recording is very distracting though. And the performance is sometimes a bit off, like the narrator forgot which voice he was using for which character.

Great story, poor recording

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Excellent storytelling, enthralling from start to finish typical Dick Francis. Also first class narration by Tony Britton.

Dick Francis is a great storyteller. This did not disappoint. Narrator was fantastic as usual. He brought the characters alive. Good plot with interesting twist. Only thing to let it down was the old recording had a background hiss and was poor quality. I still enjoyed it though.

Jolly Good
