About this listen
The body, as Chief Inspector Wexford is informed later, has lain buried for 10 years or so, wrapped in a purple cotton sheet. The post mortem can not reveal the precise cause of death. The only clue is a crack in one of the dead man's ribs.
Although it covers a relatively short period of time, the police computer stores a long list of missing persons. Men, women and children disappear at an alarming rate, something like 500 every day nationwide. So Wexford knows he is going to have a job on his hands to identify the corpse.
And then, only about 20 yards away from the woodland burial site, in the cellar of a disused cottage, another body is found.
The detection skills of Wexford, Burden and the other investigating officers of the Kingsmarkham Police Force are tested to the utmost to discover whether the murders are connected and to track down whoever is responsible.

not up to usual standard
narrator poor, really couldn't do the accent.
story seemed short, and somehow didn't flow, perhaps it was due to being abridged

Not the Wexford
I was not happy this turned out to be an abridged copy! Christopher read Wexford very poorly, country bumpkin from who knows where, overall very disappointing

Just couldn’t listen properly, Wexford sounded ridiculous to me.
I’ve been listening in order but the change of narrator made this book inaudible to me- sadly I had to abandon it.
