About this listen

 The unthinkable has happened at London's Peculiar Crimes Unit. In the depths of winter, a member of staff has been found murdered, and everyone who works there is suddenly a suspect.

But Arthur Bryant and John May, the eccentric elderly detectives who run London's strangest crime division, aren't on hand to solve the crime. They've ventured into the heart of the English countryside, only to become stranded on a desolate snowbound section of road.

As the blizzard worsens, Bryant and May attempt to solve the crime long distance using only their mobile phones. Unfortunately, their situation is about to get very much worse.

Critic reviews

"The fair-play solution will particularly satisfy lovers of golden age mysteries. Once again, Fowler shows himself to be a master of the impossible crime tale." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Sherlock Holmes meets Inspector Clouseau in this mordant, award-winning series in which Fowler gleefully skewers religious zealots and government officials alike." ( Booklist)

Another highly enjoyable episode of the life and times of the Peculiar Crimes Squad, narrated superbly.

As quirky as ever

This series gets better with each book. Another well written mystery by Christopher Fowler which has not been let down by the narration of Tim Goodman.

This is not your typical modern day murder mystery, it is slower paced with interesting characters and unusual storylines (usually totally unbelievable but still entertaining). Thankfully it is without the excessive graphic violence which seems to be standard of most modern crime and thrillers.

Long live Bryant and May

I love the two main characters. Bryant habits have kept me smiling throughout the book. Such an "oddball" but totally likeable .

Good enjoyable book, surprises in several places, and well read. I think the narrator has the characters off very well. I can tell who is talking by the way he portrays them.

But: I wish the books were shorter. This one at 10hrs took a while to get through, earlier 15hr books are hard work .... But I still like them. Problem is, is that you need to "listen" to all the details or you miss the plot. You cannot listen going to bed, as a bit dark and also brain not as good at listening. Hence it takes me a while to finish and I skip back into easier listening books ... Then need to finish them.

Would recommend if you have staying power and LISTEN to detail well.

GREAT ODD COUPLE - 2 stories in one
