As the sun rises, a wealthy young woman, Samantha Seabrook, is found drowned in the ornamental fountain of a deserted Cambridge courtyard, the only clue: an antique silver chain wound tightly around her throat. It’s Tara Thorpe’s job to discover what happened to Miss Seabrook. But the case becomes personal when she learns that Samantha had been receiving death threats, rather like the one that landed on Tara’s doorstep the night the woman died. Together with Detective Inspector Garstin Blake, Tara tracks the killer to the dank and dangerous fens on the outskirts of the city.

Recently divorced and reluctantly retired, Julia Bird has fled London to enjoy idyllic rural life in the Cotswolds. Determined to have the perfect English garden, her first job is to tear down the old shed, where she unearths much more than she’d bargained for: a body, apparently buried for decades. But who could it be, and who killed them? The police draw a blank, and even the gossip-fest that is the local book club can’t remember anyone going missing in the village.

Unable to finish
This is a book I will have to read myself. I kept trying to work out why I wasn’t enjoying it and I came to the conclusion that it really sounded like it was being read rather than performed and it irritated me so much I couldn’t finish. It sounded like a series of statements.

Good story
Narration was awful! Good voice but jumped scene without any pause so confusing to keep track. I switched between audible and kindle to keep track as a result!

Murder in The Oxford Canal
Narration was good which made for an ordinary listen. I had thought several times to archive it but plodded into the finish.

boring, too much description,
We started listening to this on a long road trip but it was so tedious it almost put us to sleep. Only worth listening to if you have insomnia.
