De: John Broughton

Detective Inspector Jacob Vance and his assistant, Detective Sergeant Brittany Shepherd, are called upon to prevent a series of murders across London.

The Metropolitan Police Commissioner has provoked a psychopath with her inaugural speech. Soon later, the commissioner receives a letter threatening a series of nine killings, culminating in "the big one", unless the police chief retracts her speech with a public apology.

To disprove her statements, the killer adds colour and poetry to the murders, all committed in the name of the mysterious Lord Robert. As the death toll mounts, Vance and Shepherd struggle to identify the victims in advance, and there seem to be no clues of the killer's identity.

Brilliant thriller

Brilliant keeps you on the edge of your seat , with a final twist at the end.
Superbly narrated.
A must read for lovers of British crime thrillers.

Engaging detective story!

I enjoyed The Quasimodo Killings by John Broughton. Detectives Vance and Shepherd are hunting a serial killer in London and trying to prevent future crimes. Its a fast paced thriller that keeps the reader engaged. The narration by Michael Langan is terrific. His performance helps set the mood and brings the characters and story to life.

Very intelligent Murder Mystery

Ver enjoyable. Leave it up to those London detectives to show how it’s done. Terrific narrator.

twisted goodness

I have to admire the sheer genius of this criminal's mind, but I admire the detective's mind and cunning ability to decipher the clues piece by piece much more. It all came to a fitting end, and I was happy with the conclusion. I enjoyed the journey. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing the characters and story to life. I highly recommend this book.
