New Orleans, 1919. As a dark serial killer - The Axeman - stalks the city, three individuals set out to unmask him. As Michael, Luca and Ida each draw closer to discovering the killer's identity, the Axeman himself will issue a challenge to the people of New Orleans: play jazz or risk becoming the next victim. And as the case builds to its crescendo, the sky will darken and a great storm will loom over the city…©2014 Ray Celestin (P)2014 W.F.

I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more if I'd given it more time. could only listen in bite sized chunks. I found the story quite confusing at points, and found it difficult to follow.

story a little complex for me.

I had been wanting to listen/ read this for so long! Utterly enthralling throughout the entirety

Incredibly engrossing

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I was looking forward to listening to this book but after 90 minutes, although the story is promising, the narration is poor. The voices used veer between a poor rendition of Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry and characters from the Simpsons. The Scots and Irish accents of the police personnel wander all over the place. It occurred to me that Ida was going to be a key character in the investigation of the murders and I just couldn't stand listening to the whiny voice being used for her so I'm afraid this book is going back. Honestly, when we read a book we don't take on a dozen different voices. Why do it for an audio book, especially if the reader is not up to the job? If the writing is good enough, it should be clear who is speaking. Male readers inevitably make a poor fist of female voices so time to stop this nonsense and just have someone read in a their own voice.

Promising story but poor narration

I did enjoy this book but it was probably 4 hours longer than it needs to be and although the narrator was probably good at American accents (I am British so i couldn't say), the Scottish accent was awful! Set in 1919 New Orleans, a murderer is about and various people are trying to catch him. Some of these characters are better than others and the story is quite slow as I say, but generally speaking it was quite a good listen and I am going to finish the series so it can't have been that bad!

Quite a good listen but not my favourite

It's a slow burner, but once this plot got going I couldn't stop listening. Superbly told and suspenseful right up to the very last moment, with all the history and charm of New Orleans.

The best murder mystery I've ever experienced
