About this listen

January 1939. When young Amy Rowlings meets Detective Sergeant Bodkin at the scene of a robbery on the way to work at The Mill, she is blissfully unaware of how much her life is about to change.

She is drawn into the murky world of murder when the body of Edward Handsley is found lying on the floor of the factory. Edward, a libertine, philanderer, the son of the factory owner George, a young man with many enemies, many of them female. Bodkin is new to the area and Amy soon becomes an invaluable source of information.

But when a family friend, Adam Smethwick, is arrested, Amy sets out to prove his innocence. Amy's burgeoning relationship with Bodkin is pushed to the limits as the detective becomes even more convinced that he has arrested the right man . . .

I’m writing a review because this was fun but probably won’t stand out so far in my memory that in 6 months time I’ll be hunting for the sequel. It’s not by any means a bad book but I read a lot!!

Perfectly fine

I have been a reader of the work of Trevor Belshaw for several years, he is one of my favourite authors. Trevor Belshaw has Murder at the Mill tells the story of how a murder is discovered at a local factory which is thought to be the result of a burglary. I read this book when it first came out on kindle and when I knew it was being made available as an audio book I was eager to reacquaint myself with this lovely book. I had pre-ordered on Audible so I was able to start listening on Monday morning.
I was hooked from the beginning and apart from a short break, listened to it all day.
The choice of Gemma Lawrence as the narrator / voice actor for this work was inspired. She has a voice that is easy to listen to, drawing the listener into the story. Her voice is clear, natural and brings the characters, particularly Amy to life. Her range of different accents for the characters is remarkable and adds to the quality of the recording. I hope that the rest of the series is also made available on Audible and that Gemma continues to be chosen as the narrotor. Five star author and five star narrator
