Acerca de esta escucha

In the tenth murderous case for Richard Jury, the New Scotland Yard superintendent witnesses a killing in a West Yorkshire inn called the Old Silent, while his highborn, amateur colleague, Melrose Plant wishes to he could perform one as he drives his impossible Aunt Agatha to the Old Swan in Harrogate.

Caught up in a triple murder, Jury would go to any lengths to help Nell Healey, the lovely widow of one of the victims. But Nell Healey remains silent as the Yorkshire moors, quiet as the grave, while the scope of the mystery widens.

Lo que los oyentes dicen sobre The Old Silent

Con calificación alta para:

The Story Revolves Around The Intricate Murder Investigation Undertaken By The Famous And Self-analytical British Detective Richard Jury. While The Mystery Itself Is Intriguing And The Character Development Engaging, The Narrative Is Often Sidetracked By Irrelevant Storylines, Pointless Musings Of The Characters, And Frustrating Dialogues That Don't Seem To Move The Plot Forward. The Frequent And Confusing Changes In Locales And The Overuse Of Certain Plot Devices Like A Music Band Also Hamper The Storytelling At Times. However, The Overall Twisting Plotlines, Captivating Storytelling, And Beguiling Narrative Style Make It An Enjoyable Read For Fans Of The Series.

I love The Old Silent

Having read almost all of Martha Grimes Richard Jury stories, it is a real pleasure listening to them again and reminiscing about the plots. The old gang from Long Pid does not disapoint.

A great story!

This was my introduction to Martha Grimes Richard Jury Mysteries. I have always love British mysteries and this one did not disappoint. I realize this was not the first book of Richard Jury Mysteries but still enjoyed it. There are quite a lot of characters so I had to really pay close attention. Can’t wait to listen to all the others. Steve West is very talented so many characters and he is able to give them all a voice with their own accent. Bravo 👏🏻 to him and to Martha Grimes for her Richard Jury Mysteries.

Intriguing and sad; they are getting sadder!

Would you listen to The Old Silent again? Why?

Yes; because Martha Grimes is brilliant as is Steve West's delivery of her mysteries.

What other book might you compare The Old Silent to and why?

All of the other Richard Jury mysteries; the same characters are strung throughout in the most beguiling manner.

Have you listened to any of Steve West’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes; eleven other Richard Jury Mysteries. This one is just as unique and laden with unexpected turns.

If you could take any character from The Old Silent out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I would love to be friends with Melrose Plant--I want to date Richard Jury, CID; so a nice romantic dinner with Richard please!

Any additional comments?

This is yet another book, in the series, where poor Richard is drawn to a woman who is either unavailable or who dies soon after he starts-up a romance; the man is cursed!

Depression vs music

: british-detective, law-enforcement, music, muted-humor

While wrapped in depression, Jury witnesses a woman at the end of her own tether deliberately shoot her husband in a quiet pub. He becomes engaged in an unsolved mystery involving the woman, her husband, now dead, and Macalvie while deciding what to do with his life. Plant and Wiggins assist in working on her motivation, the unsolved mystery, and learning about the music scene, Vivian's ongoing Italian situation, and Plant discovers an American. Good show!
Steve West continues to be excellent

Brilliant

Martha Grimes is 92 years and I wonder if she realizes the happiness she still brings. Her work is genius and timeless.

DIFFICULT TO FOLLOW

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I'm not sure. I don't know too many people who want to pay such rapt attention to a story. At least two times, I repeated segments believing I had missed something.

What did you like best about this story?

The little girl stole the show. What a delightful little pessimist!

What about Steve West’s performance did you like?

He did a good job with the voices.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Why did she kill him?

Enjoyable listen, great characters

Love the Richard Jury novels by Martha Grimes, and can't imagine anyone doing a better job of narrating than Steve West. Always an interesting mystery and character development- love a series where you get to know the characters more with each one.
