Average detective ramble
The book is one in a series but it's more about the detective than about a storyline. The story didn't grip me and the narrator had a slow drone although I got used to it. It's a pretty short book also.

Midsummer Murder
This well written story reminds me of the Midsummer Murder series on TV. If you are a fan of those then you will like this too I expect. A slow moving and predictable storyline expertly narrated but storytelling at its best.

Enjoyable
Format: audiobook
Narrator: Anthony Goring
Greed and jealousy is at the heart of this murder mystery.
Having listened to a couple of other audiobooks in this series I’m happy to say the this narrator is much better than the last two and made this book a pleasure to listen to.

Death is for the dying
This book is a very interesting read and one I could not put down. The story was super fast paced and kept me engaged throughout. There was enough back story that I got a strong sense of who John was, where he had been and how he got to where he was.

Ok
I found this a bit predictable, I'd worked out half way through who had done it, and how, although the why didnt become clear straight away.
I'd listen to the other books in the series, but only if i had nothing else in my library to listen too
I was given this book in exchange for an honest review

Another handful
This is a short listen with good and bad points. This is book three in the series and I liked the fact that you learnt more about the character, mainly why he became a consultant for the the police. However do you really need two sex scenes in only a two and hour story? I would have preferred the author used the time to add some twists to the story. The mystery was interesting and I liked the usual method of death but there was not enough suspects, which made it fairly easy to know who the killer was. Another problem I have is would John rely be able to investigate the murder with his connection to the victims girlfriend and why wasn't he a ever a suspect? Other than that it is a good little small town mystery.
John Handful is called in to consult on another murder case, the murder of his ex fiance's new boyfriend. His first challenge is to work out how he died, beside in agony. Is Kimberley a suspect? Can John find the killer with the help of his new girlfriend?
The narrator is okay but I don't think he is right for the character because he makes John Handful sound like an elderly man and all the characters sounds the same.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
