Resumen del Editor

When the quiet Little Vestry of St. Matthew's Church becomes the blood-soaked scene of a double murder, Scotland Yard Commander Adam Dalgliesh faces an intriguing conundrum: How did an upper-crust Minister come to lie, slit throat to slit throat, next to a neighborhood derelict of the lowest order? Challenged with the investigation of a crime that appears to have endless motives, Dalgliesh explores the sinister web spun around a half-burnt diary and a violet-eyed widow who is pregnant and full of malice - all the while hoping to fill the gap of logic that joined these two disparate men in bright red death...

A good story.

I always enjoy P. D. James. She brings out flaws in human nature we all have on some level in her characters,

Excellent performance

We all know Pd James is the best but here we have the best with an outstanding performance and good sound editing. No repeating sentences as in so many Audible books

another enjoyable mystery with colorful characters

Well delivered reading. AD has become a family friend of sorts. Wonderful character development plus amazing descriptive flare to set the scene or deliver emotions and suspense.

Full of twists and turns

I've been on a P D James kick and always enjoy the Dalgliesh books but this one seemed to have more characters, more plot twists and more dialogue than the ones I've previously enjoyed. It certainly kept mybinterest and the only thing that stopped me was my phone battery dying!!!

PD James is top notch.

Overall a good read. PD James is a favorite. Think the narration is better if listened to at faster speed.

Every Word Is Good

A Taste for Death was worth every minute, long though it was. It gripped the reader the entire story. Kate was a fine addition to the team. The cameo appearance of Millicent Gentle was exquisite, including Make-peace. Dalgliesh continues to enthrall. Listen with pleasure!
