Editorial reviews

Gwendoline Butler’s 26th John Coffin mystery, The Coffin Tree finds the embattled police chief of London’s Second City embarking on an investigation into the "accidental" death of two of his officers, and leads him straight into a sticky web of money-laundering, arson, and duplicity in this absorbing police procedural radiantly performed by Nigel Carrington, who’s authentic British accent and confident delivery transport the listener to the criminal underworld lurking beneath the Thames.
