About this listen

Who will return home - and who will be sacrificed to the island?

The Greek Island Killer is the first in Francis Lloyd’s Detective Inspector Jack Dawes mysteries. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, L. J. Ross, J. R. Ellis, Angela Marsons or Faith Martin.

Detective Inspector Jack Dawes and his bride, Corrie, join eight other holidaymakers bound for a tiny Greek island, ready for a bit of sun, sea and sand.

Mayhem ensues when a storm destroys the island’s primitive communications, cutting it off from civilisation. It’s a perfect opportunity for murder.

First one victim is poisoned, followed swiftly by another. Then a woman is found badly beaten in a quiet cove and a body is found in a grotto to St. Sophia, the island’s patron saint. The island’s visitors are being picked off one by one.

Can Jack uncover the truth before the killer ups the ante? Who will return home - and who will be sacrificed to the island?

Loved this book. Fun and interesting and completely entertaining. Not a serious murder mystery but clever, I might be slow but I didn’t figure out what was going on til right near the end. Narration more than adequate. I’ve purchased the next one!

This probably was from an Agatha Christie fan with Midsomer Murder thrown in, ok if you like cosy crime stories.

Marvellousness

This book took a long time to grow into the story. The narration of some accents was grating, and there were so many characters it was hard to track.

I had to go back and replay a few times. Some unpredictable twists, but they did not redeem the lack of satisfaction except to say, I finished it.
