About this listen

 It sends a shiver down Detective Superintendent Alan Markby's spine when he hears that a rambler has stumbled across human bones in Stovey Woods in the heart of the Cotswolds. Twenty-two years earlier, as a fresh-faced young inspector, he had a rare failure in the hunt for a brutal serial rapist preying on local women. After the third rape, the attacker went to ground, never to be heard of again. Now, with a new investigation prompted by the grisly remains, the trail could be warm once more.

But almost immediately, Markby is confronted with another body and a thoroughly up-to-date murder. Could the two be connected? Perhaps, but it seems that some of the village residents would be just as happy to let sleeping dogs lie and secrets, both old and new, stay hidden.

"This is a rock-solid British village procedural, complete with detailed setting, slightly degenerate denizens, and ongoing personal conflicts." (Library Journal)

Wonderful narrator.

I really enjoy these stories and I could listen to Judith Boyd all day.
There is never any confusion over the different characters, no jarring mispronunciations and she has such a pleasing voice. I am definitely going to listen to more .

Engrossing crime story

One is carried along by the narrative eager to find out what happens next. The characters are well-drawn so one doesn't get confused who is whom. Carol Boyd is an excellent reader.

Insanely convoluted

I keep finding myself listening to this as you might listen to the ocean. Listening to a soothing shush-shush with no expectation of meaning. There are so many words and so much story….but so little to hold interest. I suspect it’s all just packaging disgusting an absence of substance. A load of old tosh, in short.
