Worth a listen.
As ever an enjoyable listen from La Plante and the narrator Samantha Bond does a brilliant job. It may be because this is an abridged version but it seemed very clipped and to the point, with little insight into the feelings of Anna Travis and very little about the rest of her team's investigation into the case.

Poor compared to other books by La Plante.
Should never have given Langton a northern accent. Not very realistic. Very weak plot. Disappointed.
