Narrado por: Marion Todd

NEXT IN LINE is a thrilling addition to the much-loved and bestselling detective fiction series from a rising star in Scottish crime fiction. Ideal for fans of Alex Gray, D. K. Hood and Rachel Amphlett.

Gaby Fox is known to many due to her successful TV career, so when her brother and his pals hire the salubrious Lamond Lodge for his birthday celebrations, it is noted by the St Andrews locals. A ripple of shock goes round the town when Russell Fox is gunned down on the premises. DI Clare Mackay is attending a wedding when she sees Gabrielle receive a phone call then flee. Soon after, Clare learns why when the news of the shooting reaches her. Instead of trying to enjoy the day – not easy when the groom is her ex-boyfriend – Clare is preoccupied. Clare gets to work on uncovering the facts surrounding Russell Fox's death. The guests at the lodge have secrets to hide, but even when Clare begins to unravel the deceit, it doesn't bring the answers. The detective can't help but wonder why no one who knew Russell seems capable of telling the truth, and whether there is more than one person with a reason to want him dead…

Great stories and characters

I love the uniqueness of each of this author stories. They are well written with great twists and wonderful characters.

predictable

Enjoyed this book, but had the mystery solved three chapters in. Still pleased to read it.

Fantastic

What a great series. I throughly enjoyed getting to know all the characters and wish there were more books. Hopefully soon. Having the author narrator just added to the enjoyment. I listen to loads of crime stories and really enjoyed this series

Entertaining

very entertaining, loved it, characters were very believable
story kept me guessing as to who done it

When you need a break from blood and gore

Not very exciting, but no gore or torture either. Just kind of average. The author narrates and does an adequate job, but she is really just reading albeit with expression.
