Özet

From the number-one best-selling author of The Ashes of London and The Fire Court, this is the seventh instalment in the acclaimed Lydmouth series

Love and need make unexpected bedfellows, and both are blind. As the grip of a long hard winter tightens on Lydmouth, a dead woman calls the dying in a seance behind net curtains. Two provincial newspapers are in the throes of a bitter circulation war. A lorry driver broods, and an office boy loses his heart.

Britain is basking in the warm glow of postwar tranquillity, but in the quiet town of Lydmouth, darker forces are at play. The rats are fed on bread and milk, a gentleman's yellow kid glove is mislaid on a train and something disgusting is happening at Mr Prout's toy shop.

Returning to a town shrouded in intrigue and suspicion, Jill Francis becomes acting editor of the Gazette. Meanwhile, there's no pleasure left in the life of Detective Chief Inspector Richard Thornhill. Only a corpse, a television set and the promise of trouble to come.

Andrew Taylor on form again. Always good to return to Lydmouth to meet old friends and some new ones. And the plotting is as well constructed as ever.

Another excellent entry in the seris

Plots and twists going on throughout the book. You never know what will happen next. A very novel twist at the end. Very well performed by Philip Frank's.

A very good listen

I have listened to a lot of Andrew Taylor’s books and I really enjoy The Lydmouth Series.
He is brilliant at evoking the period of the 50’s. With the awesome Philip Franks as narrator it was a real treat.

Wonderful

I have never listened properly to the background elements to a story so much as I have with this series of stories. The descriptions of little occurrences and interactions with the surroundings of the goings on in Lydmouth and its community are outstanding. I have read all Andrew Taylors books but the Lydmouth tales struck me the most. Reading the books physically is one thing , but listening to them especially with the master craft of Philip Franks voice brought a new dimension to the tales. It was the small seemingly insignificant short descriptions of everyday events or surroundings and locations etc that really make the story stand out. True escapism . Although Lydmouth seems a dangerous place to live you really feel like you would love to go and visit. Thank you Andrew Taylor and Audible. Great work

The description of ordinary life and its movements that we all take for granted daily.
