He has feelings for her, but he is the garda who investigated her husband's murder, and their relationship is complicated.
With crime in Dublin’s suburbs at an all-time high and his superiors breathing down his neck, West doesn't need the distraction.
But someone wants Edel out of the way, and it's up to West to find out who....

Interesting characters.
Enjoyed the storyline which kept me listening too. Easy listening to the narrator’s voice and his interpretation of the characters.

Another very listenable story with a touch of romance.
Although this book is listed as a psychological thriller, I feel it is more an atypical Whodunit crime story. The only bug bare for me is the monotone drone of the Narrator. Speaking in a very staccato tone. Very, very distracting and spoils the overall enjoyment of the story

Enjoyable
Intriguing story and likeable characters. Thoroughly enjoyed this and some of the banter between the police colleagues made me laugh.

I am loving this series
I have enjoyed this second Dublin mystery and can't wait for the next one. Valerie Keogh is a brilliant storyteller. I love the Irish accent of the narrator.

good storyline and narrator
The second one in the series I've listened to and enjoyed both books. Enjoying tha characters and the twists and turns. Love the narration. Perfect for an Irish setting and able to handle different accents without silly voices for the females. Hoping the next book won't involve a woman that needs saving from herself though. 😆

Passed the time
Book 2 in the Dublin series and a bit better than the first one - however once again we meet the hapless female lead who is caught up in yet another deception just 6 months after her previous shambles.
Interesting plot - though the poisoning methodology is over-explained several times throughout the book.
Plus Catalogue so was fine to pass the time - if I had been reading a hard copy I would have skimmed over quite a lot of the repetition.
Narration was good.

Free series: not bad
Sometimes, when a title is free, it’s still a waste of time, so there is a cost of sorts. This series is not that - but at times it was close.
The narrator has a great Irish voice until he is asked to do any other accent, but it wasn’t awful.
The stories were clever, if strewn with completely transparent clues and events. I think the series improved as it matured, and I really liked the way previous incidents were brought into the succeeding volumes.
The chief problem was the dreadful Edel. Sadly almost as central and relentlessly recurring as the key detective. She cannot make a straightforward decision, or make a logical choice. SPOILER: she survives despite her own best efforts and my heartfelt wishes.
Free, until mid-May. Overall, ok.
