Great

I love mysteries and this listen was great i love how Detective John Handful operates if you love twist and turns this is for you

Cozy mystery

This is one of those cozy mysteries where there is a bunch of dialogue, lovely descriptions of a rural environment, some inept police officers, and a civilian detective to close the case. Despite being relatively short, there were a lot of words compared to the somewhat transparent mystery that drove the plot. I took this as a sign of world building and establishing some love able, relatable characters for future novels.

I liked the setting and characters, and generally I’m good with the cozy mystery sub/genre. There isn’t a lot of action here. (And that’s consistent with this type. )

The narrator has an engaging but clear accent and has become the voice of the main character for me.

I received this audiobook for free in exchange for a review.

Nice cozy mystery

Nice little cozy mystery. The detective is like-able, along with the other characters in the book. My favorite part is his nice relationship with his wife.

Blind Spot

I enjoyed this book!I found R.E. Hunter a very fine narrator.I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.' 

Short, but a great start

As a disclaimer, I was offered a copy of this book for the sake of an honest review.

The first of Andrew Hixson's John Handful Mysteries serie does a good job to present the main character and narrator, a private detective from London who moved to the Suffolk area of Oxmarket in recent years.

Having listened to the rest of the serie, I can say that the personality of this astute detective remains consistent and a delight to follow. This book is a little on the short side, but provides a pleasant puzzling case.

R.E. Harter's narration was vivid and lively, and was a pleasure to listen to.
