Summary
DI Hillary Greene is called out to attend a suspicious death at Three Oaks Farm in the picturesque village of Steeple Barton.
The large farmhouse is filled with music and revellers, but when she steps into the farm’s cowshed, Hillary finds a dead bride. Dressed in a sumptuous white wedding gown, the young, beautiful redhead has clearly been strangled. But not everything is what it seems, and the victim turns out to be at the centre of a web of jealousy and intrigue in the close-knit village. Many of the villagers have a motive for murdering her, but they’re not giving up their secrets easily.
Can Hillary discover the real reason for this brutal crime and cope with the spiralling revelations about her dead ex-husband?

Good story, rushed narration
I liked these books a lot in print so was looking forward to them being brought to life, so to speak. However, the narration is strange, quite good at differentiating characters but somehow seems rushed and seems to trivialise the story- needs to be more measured

A little slow
Narrator’s voice has a tendency to put me to sleep. Quite like the main characters

Average
The reader has a nice voice but a really annoying way of never pausing. Some weird pronunciation, too, of quite common words. The story is quite listenable-to but rather lacklustre and, somehow, you don't build any empathy for or dislike of any of the characters. I didn't manage to finish it and I don't really care what happens to Hillary.

Good story
I've been enjoying other books in this series. I thought that this was really good too. I liked the narrator's voice, and her reading most of the time, however it was jarring when she pronounced well-known terms letter by letter instead of the way we used to hearing them. Why don't the publishers provide narrators with with pronunciation of words which are not totally common or obvious? e.g. SOCO is normally read as 'sockoh' and Magdalene in Oxford as 'Mordlin'

Sad twist in the tail
Hilary Green achieves results without resorting to feminine whiles. Clever, unsentimental. Hard slog and intuition both contribute

I got there long before the cops
Once more the performer mispronounced many words, her knowledge of the English language is not good!
Story a little bit samey and predictable.

Great book
This is the third book in the series that I’ve read. I loved it and can’t wait to start the next one. Great story line, performance and unexpected twists. Keeps you guessing until the end.

Competent but dull
Good to listen to while gardening or, perhaps, sleeping. The narrator plods doggedly onwards, sometimes seeming dangerously close to running out of puff before the end of the sentence, and not paying too much attention to the pronunciation of difficult words. A leaden book with a well-matched narrator.
