These books are so quiet it can be a challenge to pay attention for clues and figure out who-done-it and -why. I do love the British accent and idioms that sprinkle conversation. Narrator's wok is excellent.

Great story with a surprise twist at the end
I loved this book because Hillary Greene is a fascinating character with her insight into her suspects' minds. Her interrogations are more like therapy sessions that result in astonishing revelations. Love it! I am loving the anticipation of a courtship battle, between two investigators, over her favor .
