Story
Caught in the blast of a huge Semtex explosion, the only things preventing Superintendent Andy Dalziel from stepping through Death's door might be his own size and indomitable willpower. As he lies on a hospital bed, it falls on DCI Peter Pascoe to seek justice for Andy. The security services have written it off as an accident: the terrorist suspects have paid for their clumsiness with their lives. Who, then, are the Knights Templar, a shadowy group exacting summary public justice on their enemies?

They moved everyone that long hot summer fifteen years ago. They needed a new reservoir and an old community seemed a cheap price to pay. They even dug up the dead and moved them too. But four inhabitants of the valley they couldn't move, for nobody knew where they were. Three little girls had gone missing, and the prime suspect in their disappearance, Benny Lightfoot. This was Andy Dalziel's worst case and now fifteen years on he looks set to relive it. It's another long hot summer.

But when a battered Ford Escort containing one very dead Italian turned up in the police car park, Peter Pascoe and his bloated superior were plunged into an investigation that made internal police politics look like child's play.

Publisher's Summary
It starts with a phone call to Superintendent Dalziel from an old friend asking for help. But where it ends is a very different story.
Gina Wolfe has come to Mid-Yorkshire in search of her missing husband, believed dead. Her fiance, Commander Mick Purdy of the Met, thinks Dalziel should be able to take care of the job.
What none of them realize is how events set in motion decades ago will come to a violent head on this otherwise ordinary summer's day.

Another remarkable visit with Andy Dalziel
Hill is simply amazing. Each novel in this series is an adventure in shifting perspective and innovative technique yet the characters remain as comfortable as a well-loved pair of Nike trainers. I hope Mr. Hill lives - and writes - forever!

Meh......rather cliched
This is my first Dalziel and Pascoe story, and I think it stands on its own and I didn't feel I needed to have read the others beforehand. And I'm glad I didn't, I guess, because they seem rather cliched. The characters and the story aren't bad, but not terribly novel or interesting either......the best thing about the book was the creation of the overlapping time frames to illustrate how everything happened in a single day.
Probably good for fans of these characters, but I thought it was just OK......I certainly didn't like it as much as I enjoyed The Woodcutter.

Another top tier effort in the Dalziel and Pascoe
Another top tier effort in the Dalziel and Pascoe series. I'm revisiting this series via audible books and had some difficulty with one of the earlier narrators, however Jonathan Keeble's reading made the book very enjoyable. He made it easy to differentiate between characters and did so without his voice getting so hi or low that I had to adjust the volume. After a serious concussion from an explosion, Dalziel returns to work struggling to bring himself up to speed. By chance he finds himself at the centre of a puzzle that develops into a murder investigation with one of his officers seriously assaulted. Despite Pascoe's efforts to assume control and limit Dalziel's activities by regularly waving the rule book Andy manages to solve the crime while also getting himself back up to speed with the job. I'm also enjoying Reginald Hill's other books outside this series.

Too urban
I do not like gangster mysteries. I guess I like my mysteries driven by other things besides urban gangsters, because, like the stupid vampire mysteries , it is too easy to throw in any resolution to problem and not develop characters.
I do not like any of the characters in this book.

I never fancied the television series and so I would probably never had read this had I not read The Woodcutter by the same author . Now I'm hooked. I found it difficult to stop listening to, loved the characters and the storyline and thought it had a very satisfactory ending. Perfect in fact from start to finish.

If you liked The Woodcutter, you'll love this
An excellent book with the same narrator as The Woodcutter. Fast paced and well written. You do not have to have any prior knowledge of Dalziel to enjoy it. I would definitely recommend it.

Briliant, entertaining book.
This was the first Dalziel and Pascoe I have listened to and it didn't disappoint. I had just finished listening to The Woodcutter read by Jonathan Keeble and I picked this book because it was the same narrator. The story keeps you interested from the beginning and you feel like you know the characters really well. The plot and ending are brilliant and I listened to the last chapter several times. I now want to listen to more Dalziel and Pascoe.

Thoroughly enjoyable story, great narrator
Where does Midnight Fugue rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I purchased this audiobook off the back of The Woodcutter as I'd enjoyed it so much. I was not disappointed, the narrator was fabulous (again!) and so was the story. I hadn't ready or listened to any of the previous Dalziel and Pascoe books but it was easy enough to pick up.

Super tale, but...
A cracking tale and great characterisations by Jonathan Keeble throughout - he is a master of tone and character. There's just one thing I'd ask - for I've listened to a number of these novels via Audible now and have enjoyed them greatly: please don't let Wieldy's voice channel the spirit of Alan Bennett! Mr Keeble has beautifully created each character in this super tale and his vocal work really complements the story - but please can we have the laconic, brusque and delightfully gruff Wieldy back? This was the only jarring note in an otherwise accomplished, delightfully convoluted tajayy

Narrator's portrayal of Dalziel was superb!
I thought the storyline was good - a little unsurprising, but the characters were excellently depicted by the author and given breath by the narrator.
Good twist at the end!
Recommended. Ps I haven't heard any of the other Dalziel & Pascoe stories before - this can stand alone very well.
