About this listen

As Challis investigates, a farmer on the peninsula erupts into violence and is the target of a massive manhunt. And then Challis finds some aerial photographs in the possession of his friend Kitty that link her to the murders....

I enjoyed the story, it kept me listening. I did not enjoy the narrator. Wrong voice for the story.

wrong narrator for story

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Lots of murders but not creepy. This mystery covers the lives of the Mornington peninsula cops and evokes the rather in-bred seaside town and it’s beautiful coastal environment. As usual with Disher a great plot and believable ending. Sorry the narrator can’t pronounce the names of Victorian country towns Tooradin has the emphasis on the first not second syllable. A bit irritating

Engrossing not gruesome

I love many of Gary Dishers books but this one didn’t impress. On top of this, the narration was awful.

Underwhelmed

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I cannot recommend this book. The story is not only dated, the characters are also irritating. However, the narration is worse than any of this.
