Summary
A coffin is dug up by builders in the grounds of a historic convent - inside is the body of a young nun.
In a city as old as London, the discovery is hardly surprising. But when scratch marks are found on the inside of the coffin lid, Detective Jane Tennison believes she has unearthed a mystery far darker than any she's investigated before.
However, not everyone agrees. Tennison's superiors dismiss it as a historic cold case, and the Church seems desperate to conceal the facts from the investigation.
It's clear that someone is hiding the truth and perhaps even the killer. Tennison must pray she can find both - before they are buried forever....
In Unholy Murder, Tennison must lift the lid on the most chilling murder case of her career to date....

Best One Yet!
After listening to the other books in this Tennison series, I thought this story was the most intriguing.Jane has moved Stations and has bought her own house . I liked the fact that the case she is working on runs parallel to her personal life, so the listener becomes involved with a mixture of her work and social life, rather than just the case and life at the Station dominating the story.There are also quite a few humorous parts in this one. Overall, I thought this audible had quite a few differences from the previous ones, possibly because the main character has climbed the ranks and is less overpowered by her team.I also thought that the plot relating to the Convent had a good historic feel and kept the listener guessing.The Narrator was very good ,especially when speaking as the central character, however I could not hear the diction properly when she tried to speak Maltese as the Priest or French when they were dining out! It was definitely an audible that you couldn't stop listening to and held your attention throughout.

Totally absorbing.
I found it hard to turn this audio book off. It was so professionally narrated by Rachel Atkinson, a joy to listen to. The storyline was gripping with well rounded believable characters. I highly recommend this audio book.

Engaging tale, brilliant narration.
An exciting story, excellent characterisation made even better by an outstanding narration by Rachel Atkins. She brings to life each character with a unique voice and never overdoes the emphasis of emotion which some narrators make the mistake of doing. Her calm voice when Tennison interrogates witnesses and suspects is perfect.

Bad ending
Having listened to all the books this far, I was enjoying this story until the last few chapters the ending seemed rushed and rather flat.

An ending I struggle to accept
sad that little justice can be done and that is really frustrating an ending for me. but this is true and a snippet of what powerful organisations can do to block justice in society.

Brilliant fast paced murder mystery police drama
Another brilliant book in the young Jane Tennison series an old murder after a metal coffin is dug up on a building site, inside is the body of a nun, nothing surprising there until the scratches are found in the underside of the lid, there is a good mix of the Met and a local police force and it worked well, looking forward to the next book

Another Brilliant Listen
Lynda La Plante has done it again. An absolutely brilliant listen.
Rachel Atkins reads the different parts wonderfully and brings this book to life.
I recommend any Jane Tennison Fans to listen to this. It will not disappoint.
