About this listen

As the Second World War nears its end, a man is stabbed to death on the shoreline of Kinloch, in the shadow of the great warships in the harbour. Many years later the postman on Gairsay, a tiny island off the coast of Kintyre, discovers that the Bremner family are missing from their farm. There's a pot on the stove and food on the table, but of the Bremners there is no sign.

When DCI Daley comes into possession of a journal written by his wartime predecessor in Kinloch, Inspector William Urquhart, he soon realises that the Isle of Gairsay has many secrets. Assisted by his indomitable deputy, DS Brian Scott, and new boss, Chief Superintendent Carrie Symington, Daley must solve a wartime murder to uncover the shocking events of the past and the present.

Great series

Loved the story - full of suspense and intrigue with Jim Daley and his henchman Scott. Introduced us to a new player; farewelled Jim's love interest and hopefully well rid of the errant wife, Liz.
The only difficult point was the narrator. Whilst he does a great job getting his tongue around numerous & varied accents, I would really appreciate it if he made pauses between various sections just a little longer so that the listener can recognise the changes - especially when going from present to past & vice versa.
But a great , informative story!

Fascinating history of aspects of WWII.

After the far fetched and rather farcical twists of The Rat Stone Serenade, I found this a welcome return to form. Great story wonderfully performed.
