‘A brilliant book! The pairing of Ryder and Loveday is a stroke of genius.’ Clare Chase

Oxford, 1960. Probationary WPC Trudy Loveday is smart and enthusiastic but always underestimated. To keep her out of the way, her senior officer assigns her to assist Coroner Clement Ryder as he reopens the case of a young woman’s mysterious death. Trudy can't believe her luck – she is finally going to be working on a real murder investigation.

Meanwhile, the rest of the police force are busy investigating a series of threats and murders in the local community, and Clement can't help but feel it's all linked.

As Trudy and Clement form an unexpected partnership, can they catch the killer before more lives are lost?

‘Absolutely loved it… The characters were some of the best I’ve read in a long time.’ Angela Marsons

Could not stop listening!

I became a Faith Martin’s fan. Awesome story (I will not say what I liked about the story to not give away any spoilers) with a great style. Enough detail to give color on characters and not too much to be boring. Great hints of humor. Perfect narration.

That was excellent

I absolutely love Faith Martin's writing. She does a marvelous job with character building. There were so many surprises in this book. The book absolutely flows through to the end where everything makes sense. Just another great book. The narration was so well done I could forget that I was listening to someone reading to me. Excellent narration.

Great new series

Enjoyed it. Would recommend it. Would listen to another. Not too corny and the ending is possibly which a lot of books don't have these days.

Another good read by Faith Martin!

I miss my Hillary Greene and Jenny Starling series, but maybe this series woul end up being just a good. This book is definitely not a bad start to a new set of mysteries!

well done!

i enjoyed the Narration very much. The story kept my attention because it was darn good!

A fantastic murder mystery!!!!

A must read, different way of writing and brings the reader in wondering what the ending will be. 100% recommend!

very good

An excellent story, interesting and has twists and turns. I look forward to another story by this author, one for woman's lib in the beginning days.

Most enjoyable listen!

Loved the main characters and the interesting plot! Very entertaining mystery and wonderful narrator! Can’t t wait for the next one!

The first entry in a challenging series

Faith Martin knows how to weave a tale. A little bit police procedural, a little bit cozy mystery and filled with interesting characters. This is the first in a series and I look forward to the team of one young female newbie policewoman and a dapper but crotchety former heart surgeon turned coroner. Fascinating pairing isn’t it!

Really good

What a good classic mystery. A little disappointed at the end but, the ride was worth it!
