A secluded island. A missing woman. An impossible choice.

Detective Inspector Karen Eiken Hornby is not the only person to have returned to her native island nation, Doggerland, after years abroad. Following a ten-year hiatus, Luna has chosen to secretly record her comeback album where she was born and raised. Spirits are high among her team at the wrap party, though Karen is less than impressed with the simpering singer. The next morning, Luna is nowhere to be found.

Nothing goes unnoticed in the tight-knit community - certainly not the arrival, or disappearance, of a world-famous singer. So, while the rest of the force is frantically searching for a suspect whose brutal attacks on women are increasing in intensity and frequency, a reluctant Karen is tasked with discreetly looking into Luna's whereabouts.

As time ebbs away so does the possibility of finding Luna alive, while Karen faces seemingly impossible choices, ones that could spell life or death, both for herself and others. Dedektif Europe Gizem International Mystery & Crime Kadın Kurgu Kurgu Polisiye Prosedür Women Sleuths Şöhret Gerilim

As with all Doggerland stories this is a great romp. Complex and layered, with interesting characters and good back stories. However, hugely struggled with the narration. It wasn’t great and distracted from the story a lot. Made it much less enjoyable. If there’s more in this brilliant series I wouldn’t buy if it was this narrator again.

Mixed bag

I was really struggling after the first few chapters of this third book in the series. The narrator has changed and it has lost all the charm and unique location of the first books. Names are pronounced differently and the cadence and tone, particularly when narrating a dialogue section is almost unbearable. The scandi vibe is completely lost, with some characters even having a Yorkshire accent now - inexplicable. Someone in the reviews suggested speeding up the narration, i tried 1.15 but it was a little fast, 1.10 was perfect and did help to alleviate some of the bizarre narration choices. I stuck with this as I was invested in the characters but it was disappointing overall

New narrator makes this difficult to follow but stick with it

Really enjoyed the first book and the narrator, but unfortunately the narrator for this particular book, ruined the story meaning I stopped listening after a few chapters.

Good story. Terrible narration.

I had to battle to get through this audiobook. The story was good - I think. I was so irritated by the narrator that I almost gave up. I’m sure she would do fine in a comedy, but her squeaky, high, elongated vowels and incorrect intonation were beyond irritating. I would not normally comment as I feel it’s rude but the narrator is not suited to audio.

Great story - awful narration

The story is great continuation of the previous books. Excellent plot. Hard to stop listening. I also appreciate and was sad that the previous narrator sadly died but the current narrator just doesn’t work. Very much distracts from the story. The intonation entirely misrepresents the protagonist and suddenly Karen’s sidekick has turned northern in an hackneyed cliche. Sure narrator is good in other things but this just didn’t work at all.

Narration is all wrong but great story
