Murder in Containment

Doyle and Acton Scotland Yard Mysteries, Book 4

By: Anne Cleeland

Narrated by: Marnye Young

In this, the fourth installment of the Doyle and Acton mystery series, Detective Sergeant Doyle realizes that several apparently unrelated murders are actually "containment" murders - murders to contain an ominous scandal that could reach into the highest levels of Scotland Yard's CID.

In the process of tracking down the killers, however, she comes to the unsettling conclusion that Chief Inspector Acton has committed a containment murder or two of his own.

Loved the entire thing

The story was riveting . I loved the ease of the different accents. Very listenable as I drive down the back roads. I look forward to more.

Great narrator

This is my first book by this author. I found some things hard to accept. Such as, the head of police keeping illegal guns, his police wife being ok with it and a few other things. The narrator does a really good job of bringing the characters to life and providing a different voice for the characters. I'm not sure if I would listen to another book by this author, but, I will listen to a book narrated by Maryne Young.

Update on my first review

While I can’t say the narration was perfect, I must confess that I became more accustomed to the narration before the book was finished. The story is good. The characters are intriguing. I will continue to listen to this series.

Fun story!

I enjoy this series very much, have read all so far, and gotten the 4 on Audible, loved Marcella Riordan and had a difficult time with this narrator, but about half way thru the book her voice grew on me, and it wasn’t as jarring.

Change of narrator

Story good, but new narrator was distracting. The voices of Acton and Williams too similar; Doyle lacked the natural Irish note of teasing. Disappointed, but I do love this series.
