About this listen

When the body of a fast-living young stockbroker is found in a shallow grave, suspicion first falls on a cuckolded policeman. Lieutenant Joe Gunther investigates the increasingly bizarre details of the crime, but he's too far behind events to prevent a second murder. Indeed, whoever is responsible always seems to be a few steps ahead, as if there's a leak in the police force. Sweltering August heat does nothing to calm the increasingly agitated town selectmen, who demand results.

This is the third novel I have read in the series. I am really impressed by both the author and the narrator. It’s in a more American style, then say in English murder mystery, but even so it’s slightly atypical. I really felt myself absorbed and carried into the atmosphere of small town Vermont, and a murderous crime wave that would do Midsomer justice.

A throughly enjoyable murder mystery
