About this listen

Scotland Yard Detective Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and his wife, Detective Inspector Gemma James, have been invited for a relaxing weekend in the Cotswolds.

Duncan, Gemma and their children are guests at Beck House, the country estate belonging to the family of Melody Talbot, Gemma’s trusted detective sergeant. A centerpiece of this glorious autumn getaway is a charity luncheon catered by up-and-coming chef Viv Holland. The event could make Viv a star. But a tragic car accident followed by a series of mysterious deaths could ruin her ascent. Each piece of information that surfaces makes it clear that the killer had a connection with Viv’s pub - and perhaps with Beck House itself.

I have loved all the books in this series. However, this was difficult to enjoy as the narration was so appalling. Over pronounciation, forced diction and dreadful pauses made this really difficult to listen to. It has marred an otherwise stellar series. Such a shame. I would definitely recommend you read this but don’t listen to it.

Great story, awful narrator
