About this listen

When a cantankerous old woman dies at her home in the sleepy, picturesque village of Bamburgh, DCI Ryan doesn’t think much of it—except, that is, for the small matter of it having been his wife who happened to find her body. Then another body turns up amongst the sand dunes at the base of the mighty castle fortress, and he decides it can’t be a coincidence....

Meanwhile, after a recent revelation about her sister, DC Melanie Yates’ quest to avenge her death is becoming an obsession—much to the concern of those around her. With a new DCS to contend with and hundreds of cold case files to sift through, the chances of uncovering a dormant killer seem unlikely. But as Melanie delves deeper into the secrets of the past to uncover the truth, she soon realises it lies much closer to home....

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit, set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

Inasmuch as we’re now on the third (?) DCSuper with a dubious character and without wanting to give anything away…
DCI Ryan and Frank Philips (trusty Northumbria Detective Sergeant and BFF) are still incredibly humorous in they’re exchange, As is their laugh out loud interchange and humour. Hilarious.
Author remains outstanding with attention to detail, and consistent storyline.
As an audio ‘reader’ the length of book, time wise, is getting noticeably shorter and isn’t ideal when purchasing but I’m addicted and can’t resist!
Jonathan Keeble as a narrator is definitely in my top percentile for his delivery of the the plot and characters

Still loving’ Ryan

Another nail biting novel from LJ Ross.
Each page keeps the adrenaline pumping.
As always, Johnathan Keeble is a truly talented narrator. Can’t wait for the next DC Ryan book

Another great listen from LJ Ross. As an author myself I feel great pride that she rose through the ranks as a self published author. Absolutely marvellous!
I enjoyed the moments of humour in this serious tale.

Loved the humour.

The story lines are becoming too predictable. The author either needs to put Ryan to bed or come up with something a little more imaginative. I have loved the series until this point. The narrator as always was fantastic.

Rinse and repeat

LJ Ross must have some vendetta against the police and want to make out they are a bunch of pyscho's either that or she can't think of a new plot. 🤷🤷

Really? Again?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
this author clearly thinks the police are a bunch of idiots and all bent. it's becoming really boring and annoying!

Not again!!
