The sudden appearance of a sinister black hole in the English countryside leads to a baffling murder investigation for Ishmael Jones.
"The past is England's dreaming, and not all of it sleeps soundly...."
Ishmael Jones and his partner Penny have been despatched to assist a group of scientists who are investigating a mysterious black hole which has appeared on a Somerset hillside. Could it really be a doorway to another dimension, an opening into another world?
When one of the scientists disappears into the hole - with fatal consequences - Ishmael must prove whether it was an accident - or murder. But with no clues, no witnesses, and no apparent motive, he has little to go on. Is there an alien predator at large, or is an all-too-human killer responsible? Only one thing is certain: if Ishmael does not uncover the truth in time, more deaths will follow.

Oh, y’all. I feel like a dunce. I found this series because of the narrator, Gildart Jackson (who is magical, as always). And all the time I was whining that, yes, there were interesting concepts and compelling characters but overall it was pretty lightweight and loosey-goosey about the plot holes blah blah blah... all that time, I had no idea who this author was and what else he had written and GO, my friends, GO and look, for such TREATS await you!
I SAID GO!
________________
Original review:
I love these characters, and I’d happily listen to Gildart Jackson read the phone book. So I’ll keep going with the series.
And this did have an interesting concept, with a good twist ending. The problem was the storyline. The characters cycle on the same handful of topics over and over....
“Why don’t we just leave?”
“Because if we leave, we won’t get credit for the work.”
(Two chapters later...)
“But really, why aren’t we leaving?”
“Because if we leave we won’t get credit for the work.”
(Two chapters later...)
“Say, what if we all leave...”
It started to feel like a bad production of “No Exit”. But whatever — Ishmael Jones and Penny are their delightful selves, and the story furthers the meta-plot. Just let it wash over you and don’t think too hard.
Still love you, Ish. But this one...

Speaking of the characters, the alleged scientists we meet at the start of the story do not in any way act or speak like scientists. It's just so frustrating to listen to them. I realized very quickly that if the characters were that bad, I just wasn't going to enjoy the book. To make it worse, not only do they not sound like scientists, they go over the same topic over and over and over and over again. At some point I was thinking, "Okay, I get it. Please do or say something that moves the story forward!"
It's really too bad. The first bit was my introduction to Ishmael Jones and I really enjoyed that, but the wheels came off quickly after that.
Good beginning, but....
