The Whitby Murders

A Yorkshire Murder Mystery, Book 6

De: J. R. Ellis

Narrado por: Michael Page

A murder with three witnesses. But one of them doesn’t believe what she saw...

Halloween, Whitby. DCI Jim Oldroyd’s daughter Louise is in town with friends for a goth festival. But their visit to an escape room ends in bloody murder when one of the group stabs his girlfriend and flees the scene. It’s a crime with three witnesses - but Louise refuses to take what she saw at face value.

Oldroyd and DS Carter are called in to solve the case, assisted from the sidelines by Louise. But the closer they investigate, the more complex the web of deceit appears. This is no straightforward crime of passion.

With a violent murderer on the loose, it’s only a matter of time before they strike again. And this time it’s personal. Oldroyd must expose the truth, protect his daughter and stop the horror before it’s too late.

Yorkshire Scooby Gang?

I am in love with these books and have read every one and enjoyed them immensely. This one was borderline “Scooby Doo”-esque and a little over the top. But I will continue to read every he puts out, this one was just a little silly

Very good

Love this series. I have enjoyed this series very much and I particularly like Michael page as the narrator

Fun series

this is such an enjoyable series of books. the narration is very good and the story is always very interesting

Lots of atmosphere so so plot

Disappointed in the plot. Loved the Whitby setting. Performance struck me as overdramatic. Women's voices occasionally sounded like a Monty Python spoof/sketch - shrill & out of cadence. Not Ellis' best book nor Page's best performance.

Twisty, intricate, Fascinating

This mystery was hard to figure. I got close but not close enough. The plot was twisty and intricate. I always enjoy the well developed characters in JR Ellis's Inspector Oldroyd series & their interactions. This one was fascinating.
