About this listen
When Charlie Flint is sent a mysterious package of cuttings about a brutal murder, it instantly grabs her attention. The murder occurred in the grounds of her old Oxford college - a groom battered to death just hours after his wedding. As his bride and wedding guests sipped champagne, his alleged killers were slipping his bloodstained body into the river.
Charlie doesn't know who sent the package, or why, yet she can't get the crime out of her head. But as she delves deeper, and steps back into the mysterious world of Oxford colleges, she realises that there is much more to this crime than meets the eye.
Critic Reviews

"A workout for the grey cells, perfectly executed." (Daily Telegraph)
"This standalone from the Scottish force of nature is a brutally clever story." (Daily Mirror)
The narration is excellent

Bit of a letdown
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Given the number of characters and rather unappealing ‘lust interest’, the ‘perp’ was easily apparent - though frankly motivation and in some cases execution all a bit far fetched.
The narration within a narration simply irritated and meant all characters remained undeveloped.
Narrators fine. But not Val Mcdermid’s best.
Tedious
