Publisher's summary

It was a bit puzzling, that Chief Inspector Acton hadn’t mentioned the body they’d discovered in the burnt-out church, even though he must have known that Doyle would find it of great interest. Was the arsonist caught up in her own fire, or was there a deeper, more sinister tale told by the blackened rubble? Although she was sidelined on maternity leave, Detective Sergeant Kathleen Doyle was fast coming to the realization that her husband hadn’t told her, because he was masterminding some scheme - a scheme that may-or-may-not involve arson, blood money, and the ducks of St. Petersburg.

The baby is finally here!

i thoroughly loved the book. I wish there were fewer murders at the hand of Acton.

narration was merely average

Michael, his name is Michael! not Micha. I don't know why she can't say the L's. and we are on our 3rd narrater and the 3rd pronunciation of Munnoz. Don't narrators ask the author how to pronounce uncommon names or words? And the voice characterizations chang with each narrator as well. Williams is paryticularly bad this time. the story is up to Cleeland's usual complicated mystery that will keep you guessing. I just wish Audible would settle on a GOOD narrator and discuss with the author.

Doyle and Acton - Confusion Reigns

Repetitive tropes, flat minor characters, no detective work - only pseudo parapsychology. Doyle becomes irritating.
