About this listen
Shortlisted for the Audiobook of the Year Award at the British Book Awards
Private Detective Cormoran Strike is visiting his family in Cornwall when he is approached by a woman asking for help finding her mother, Margot Bamborough - who went missing in mysterious circumstances in 1974. Strike has never tackled a cold case before, let alone one 40 years old. But despite the slim chance of success, he is intrigued and takes it on; adding to the long list of cases that he and his partner in the agency, Robin Ellacott, are currently working on.
Robin herself is juggling a messy divorce and unwanted male attention, as well as battling her own feelings about Strike. As Strike and Robin investigate Margot's disappearance, they come up against a fiendishly complex case with leads that include tarot cards, a psychopathic serial killer and witnesses who cannot all be trusted. And they learn that even cases decades old can prove to be deadly....
A breathtaking, labyrinthine epic, Troubled Blood is the fifth Strike and Robin novel and the most gripping and satisfying yet.

if you want a quick whodunit, Agatha Christie this is not. I laughed out loud, gasped, became emotional, and found a few new characters that I want to hear more from. Pat the new secretary in particular. We travel from London to Cornwall, up to Yorkshire and back again. This book takes us over an entire year at the agency. the writing never repeats, just builds on what we know and develops each person.
The narration was outstanding. I think Robert Glinister uses the voices of Tom Burke and Holliday Grainger, and I felt as though I was watching the new series on TV.
I shall listen again, and again. within 30 hours of narration here will be lots of missed the first time round.
Fabulous
