Story3.5 out of 5 stars 5
Bramfield, near Leeds, a sleepy little market town nestled on the borders of West and North Yorkshire. Detectives Stewart Gardener and Sean Reilly discover the naked corpse of Alex Wilson, nailed to the wall of a cellar in his uncle's hardware store. His lips are sewn together, and his body bears only one mark, a fresh scar near his abdomen. Within 48 hours, their investigation results in dead ends, more victims, no suspects and very little in the way of solid evidence.

Excellent book
I received a free copy of this book in return for a fair and impartial review.
I really enjoyed the book from start to finish. I thought that it was well written and the narration was excellent. It was a great story spanning the decades with plenty of twists and turns. The choice of narrator also seemed to be a perfect fit and I’ll be looking for other books they’ve worked on.

Deceptions
The Desolate Garden by Daniel Kemp is full of great twists and manipulations. I enjoyed how the books spanned a number of decades. The imagery and details were well done. Kudos to the author for the great ending. William Merry Hill was wonderful performing this book. He gave the characters distinguishable voices. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review.
