Summary
Looking for a brilliant best-selling murder mystery with a feisty female detective?
Meet DI Hillary Greene, a policewoman struggling to save her career and catch criminals.
Wayne Sutton is found dead by a stream in a beautiful meadow. His head has been bashed in and a red paper heart left on his body. The handsome young artist had a reputation as a ladies' man. DI Hillary Greene discovers that many wealthy married women were buying his paintings and taking ‘private' art lesson from him. It appears that several of them might have wanted him dead.
Hillary also has a new detective sergeant, Gemma Fordham. Seemingly efficient and pleasant, she harbours a secret agenda. Can Hillary get to the bottom of a complex case involving jealousy, love and cold-blooded murder?
This is a crime mystery full of well-observed characters, which will have you gripped from start to finish. Murder in the Meadow is the seventh in a series of crime thrillers set in Oxfordshire. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Colin Dexter or Ruth Rendell.

Good story
Good story, I am reading the series and like it. The performance isn’t brilliant, with quite a few words mispronounced and the beginning of some chapters quite slow and then gathering speed.

Another good book in the series
I love this series, the crime plots are good. It is a little unfortunate that the narrator mispronounces some words.

Oh dear
Spoilt by average recording (some discontinuities) and poor narration. What a shame as it is a good story.

Good story, rotten narration
First by author, don't mind giving a try. Spoiled by terrible narrator. Enjoyed story & characters but not narrator. I have 500± in my library & this is my first poor review.

An enjoyable tale
The story is good. The plot follows on from previous stories in a relatively plausible way - and the climax is intriguing.
I just wish the narrator would take more care with pronunciation at times! Some words are clearly misread, and this distracts from the story!

Pronunciation
The narrator was very poor - numerous words wrongly pronounced, especially those relating to horticultural terms. Are there no checks before release?

let down by the narrator
This series is enjoyable light listening, in the main.
Does no-one 'proof listen' these books? This narrator seems to struggle with the English language at times. Her pronunciation of simple words is rather strange. Thankfully is doesn't spoil the story but it is rather irritating.
Hence the scores.
