Story
First-year detective Kathleen Doyle is a plucky Irish redhead of humble origins and modest means. Chief Inspector Michael Acton is her antithesis: a British lord turned cop. He's tall, handsome, and enigmatic - to a fault. He also has a knack for solving London's most high-profile crimes. Acton selects Doyle out of the newbie squad to partner with him on a series of investigations because she always knows when someone is lying - a trait that comes in handy when interviewing suspects and witnesses.

Publisher's Summary
In this, the fourth installment of the Doyle and Acton mystery series, Detective Sergeant Doyle realizes that several apparently unrelated murders are actually "containment" murders - murders to contain an ominous scandal that could reach into the highest levels of Scotland Yard's CID.
In the process of tracking down the killers, however, she comes to the unsettling conclusion that Chief Inspector Acton has committed a containment murder or two of his own.

great story, not so beautiful performance
Hard to listen to, story as always was a beautiful balance of mystery, romance and humour. A new favourite author for me.

WORST IRISH ACCENT EVER
Not sure why the narrator of the fourth book in the series has suddenly changed from the first 3, but it is one of the most terrible Irish accents I’ve ever heard. Clearly an American “trying” to pass off as an Irish woman.
