Is the reader the problem?

The book is s decent work for lovers of British crime, but I think a reader with a graver delivery would complement it better. The reader is skilled, but uses a lilting, light tone that detracts from the subject matter, murder. I found myself unsure whether the author meant to be tongue in cheek, or it just sounded that way. I may have to read, rather than listen, to this series in order to form my own opinion.

Great Characters

I like me the main characters of this series but wish the plots were more complex.

I needed a change and this was it!

Lately I've been listening to book after book of the heroine baker saves the day and needed something different. I found it. I was amazed how Barnett makes the heroes in this series a community of characters and not just one person. I love how we learn of the main characters back stories and personal struggles instead of here are 2 cops and this is the case. The story line is good and the villains are colorful. I really liked the narrator. His character voices helped me to flesh out the people in the story. I'll be searching for more Barnett...keep writing!

Brock & Poole?????

Really enjoyed these characters and the way they've been introduced to me. Story well thought out and like style of writing

Very good read!

I disliked that I was left hanging. Otherwise, this book was excellent. I wonder that there were no other books on Audible.
