A priceless violin. And a dark secret someone is prepared to kill for.

DCI Oldroyd has seen his fair share of victims, but he has never witnessed a murder - until now. When world-famous violinist Hans Muller is shot and killed during a concert, the detective is faced with a case beyond logic. The culprit is nowhere to be found - and the victim’s priceless violin has disappeared too.

As Oldroyd investigates the mystery of the murderer’s identity and the motive for the killing, he enters the ruthless world of wealthy instrument collectors and stumbles upon a dark path where shocking secrets have been buried in the past. But the secrets will soon take centre stage.

Oldroyd must use all his cunning to recover the priceless instrument. But can he also solve the mystery of a murderer who vanished in front of his own eyes?

Revised edition: This edition of The Quartet Murders includes editorial revisions.

OK. Solid old detective story. Sadly, the solution is a cheat. Breaches a basic tenet of detective story writing. A secret twin? Really? I think this is enough to put me off listening to anything else by this author.

Old fashioned detective story with a cheating solution

This is the second in the series and it was ok but not outstanding.
The story starts with a shooting at a concert of the lead violinist in a string quartet. His violin is a Stradivarius, which is stolen. Of course this leads to a wider network of looted Nazi Treasure, of lost instruments, obsessive collectors and a whole load of red herrings. The stakes increase with a second murder and another police force gets involved.
The story despite being fairly full on has a strange pace, and at times drags and at other times rushes things too much.
The narrator is quite flat and lets the story down a bit but is not the worst I've ever heard.
Overall 3 stars
Narration 3 stars
Story 3.5 stars

Not bad- but not great either.

Don’t give up on the story or the characters as once you are hooked it’s a really good listen.
Was at first unsure about the performance but again don’t give up as it’s read the way it should be.

A good listen but give it time
