For four years Jessica has never doubted that her sister Isabel’s death was an accident. But when Jessica’s young daughter seems to know long-forgotten details about her aunt’s past, Jessica can’t shake the feeling that there’s a more sinister truth behind the tragedy. As Jessica unearths disturbing revelations about her sister, and about the people she loved and trusted most, it becomes clear Isabel’s life was less than perfect and that Jessica’s might also be at risk.

Ready For Part 3!!!!
Mr. Edwards is such a talented writer! I can't really write much of a critique because I don't want to write spoilers. But he asked if the readers want a 3rd & final Magpie book. Yes, please!!!! Kudos Mr. Edwards!!!!

enthralling
I read The Magpies and A Murder of. Magpies in sequence in 1 day. The author hinted at a third novel and wrap up the story based on his readers response. I am voting yes. Both of these books have the same characters which are thoroughly engaging. Personally I did not like the protagonist. He is the type of man I wouldn't even have as a friend. He is in my opinion a wimpy, weak, lovestruck, nerd and a sorry excuse for a man. These traits made him a great protagonist in that initially I thought he would be killed off because he was a nobody. Many surprises in this story and a great read! I highly recommend it

He still hasn't changed
My first thought on reading this, was I was so excited to do so. I couldn't wait for it to come out, I actually had high hopes for an outcome I really thought was certain, can't say, as don't do spoilers, but once I was finished, in one because it's so short, I was angry all over again. Jamie's conduct... Just, wow. Even after everything he went through, he didn't change. Without trying to give away anything, don't read this if you had hopes for Jamie's redemption, in my opinion. The plot was good, I like what happened, but Jamie just gets on my nerves. Sure, if there's a 3rd etc, book, I'll read it of course, but it'll take a lot for my view of Jamie to warm. Well done Mark, another good one. I also liked the fact Hill was also able to read this one. Really made it feel like the continuation it is. Another narrator would've ruined that for me.

Short but sweet, a few hours long
Would you consider the audio edition of A Murder of Magpies to be better than the print version?
Yes
What about Elliot Hill’s performance did you like?
He made the story and characters come alive
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
yes and did
Any additional comments?
looking forward to the next one.
