Özet

Brought to you by Penguin.


Four members of the Coverdale family - George, Jacqueline, Melinda and Giles - died in the space of fifteen minutes on the 14th February, St Valentine's Day.

Eunice Parchman, the illiterate housekeeper, shot them down on a Sunday evening while they were watching opera on television. Two weeks later she was arrested for the crime.

But the tragedy neither began nor ended there.

I loved it from the beginning to the end.
Great story and so well read.

A murder with a difference!

I really liked this book when I read it many years ago. I made the mistake of purchasing this without listening to a sample. The narrator’s versions of Melinda and Joan’s voices are like nails down a blackboard, so shrill I had to turn it off. Such a shame. Good book, awful narration.

Narration dreadful

A tale to prove a fine writer can up-end the usual conventions of a who dunnit, tell the story 'backwards', and create just as much suspense. Well worth a read for a new take on what can lead to murder, and protagonists you can believe in. Slightly grating mimickry of female voices but not enough to spoil it.

Ending and beginnings and vice versa

see title - some of the accents made my teeth hurt

other than that RR story very good

not sure about narrators attempt at accents

Love Ruth Rendell usually but not sure I loved this. I struggled with the narrator for some of the characterisation- it was so screechy - I could hardly listen.

Great start to story which gets you hooked but narration jarring
