Diamond Dates a Doozie...!!!

Pay attention to this one there's a lot going on with a lot of characters and twists and turns Galore. Another Stellar performance by Simon. Superintendent Diamond is in full-blown investigative power with characteristic force and Humanity. the ending is a bit of an eye roller however this series Never Lets You Down. 👍👍👍👍👍

Great Tale!

Lots of twists and turns plus a little romance. Great storyline. Kept me engaged throughout. Very good story!

Secret Hangman

All of it- although I guessed the hangman early on. Still a pretty good story though.

Mystery solved

Really enjoy listening to Simon read these stories! Thank you Peter Lovsey for your mystery books!

Really Excellent Wring & Narration

These are serial books. I found the first book and began listening by accident, having crossed up the name of one author with Peter Lovesy. I was hooked immediately. This first book was not the beginning of the series. Normally I would have gone to the beginning book. For some reason, maybe earlier books were not yet in recorded books. I listened to all from that point on though. I count get enough. I have loved the processes of the DIC Peter Lovesy's personal life especially but also the revealing of and developments among this co workers. There's humor, tension suspense and one feels annoyance, agonies, a full spectrum of emotions. There's a subtle poignancy in the writing by Peter Lovesey. There's a keen thoughtfulness to his writing, that manages to reveal detail in a sort of concise and natural way, without slowing the action. The procedural and relational features of the investigative, and policing seems very credible and well researched, truly and insiders view.

I'm certain that it is this amazing and deft writing as well as the crime and suspense that hooks the reader into wanting more and dreading reaching the end of the series...like you know that you'll miss Peter Dismond and his team, your people and team! Withdrawal

Oh and can't forget the superb Narrative performance of , Simon Prebble in this book and most others.
