About this listen

A house of secrets…
As a massive storm batters the Scottish coast, Gordon Smith’s home is falling into the sea. The trouble is: that’s where he’s been hiding the bodies.

A killer on the run…
It’s too dangerous to go near the place, so there’s no way of knowing how many people he’s murdered. Or how many more he’ll kill before he’s caught.

An investigator with nothing to lose…
As more horrors are discovered, ex-detective Ash Henderson is done playing nice. He’s got a killer to catch, and God help anyone who gets in his way.

‘Stuart MacBride’s deft plotting and whipcrack dialogue, along with a strong sense of place, make The Coffinmaker’s Garden a must read. If you like your serial killers with lashings of dark humour, this is for you’ Peter Robinson, no. 1 bestselling author of the DCI Banks series

'The Coffinmaker's Garden is brilliantly creepy, with the most cleverly conceived crime scene I've ever read. His legions of fans will love this – it's an unmistakable Stuart MacBride cocktail of dark violence and even darker humour’ Jane Casey, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Cutting Place

Even so I am enjoying it. But golly there is a lot of yelling. It’s exhausting to read. But cleverly written one of the best.

Who would be a policeman in the Scottish force answer no one

I can’t get enough of Stuart’s books. I read some reviews that complained about unnecessary detail in this one! What a load of pish, it’s the detail that makes his books so engrossing. Looking forward to the next, might have to revisit some of his earlier books in the interim. Ian Hanmore is one of my favourite narrators and was at his best in this one.

A bunnet whodunnit

Fascinating story, well read. Lots of unexpected twists in this dramatic tale of murderous weather, murderous people, and finding that live conquers all. Really enjoyed it!

As good as the title

Great story with twists and turns aplenty. Ash and his dysfunctional family are all great characters whose interactions with new and returning villains were both exciting and amusing. Mr Macbride never disappoints. Great narration also. Looking forward to the next one!

Ash is a winner
