Just not very nice
I found this actually pretty horrid, it has some nasty bits with dead animals in it that I wished I'd known about before I brought it.

well-plotted and well-read
This book is the one in which Markby and his future wife Meredith first meet. It is a good story that keeps one wanting to listen. There are quite a few characters to remember, but they are brought alive by the writer and the excellent reading by Judith Boyd.

Instantly forgettable
I only finished this last week and I had to return to the book details to remind myself what it was about. Not a good sign.
I suppose if you're after a read that doesn't challenge you AT ALL then this is fit for purpose. Nevertheless, this doesn't make it any better than a 25p charity shop offering, though.
The narrator does an creditable job with relatively sub-standard material.

Fun listen.
This was fun to listen to. It is well produced. The plot allows plenty of opportunity for guessing who dunnit, should you wish.

Interesting cosy-ish crime thriller
I first read this book back in the 1990s and really enjoyed it. About 25 years later I have listened on Audible and I have to admit I found it a little dated, and it took me a while to get into it. However once I did get into it I was hooked and didn't want to stop listening.
Not sure whether I will listen to more in the series, but it was nice to revisit this as an audiobook.

Irritating
I love cosy crime novels, but it was hard going to finish this one. The figures are flat and irritating, the plot endlessly drawn out.

Shame on you Audible!
I absolutely cannot believe you do not carry multiple books in this series! I just finished book one and wanted to move right on to nook two. Alas, Audible doesn't carry that title. Why? And why not book 5? 7? Thumbs down, Audible

Well Wrought Tale.. Great Author
I don’t know how I have missed this author altogether through my searches for solid English mysteries...
It was extremely well written and I’m going to buy more of hers immediately

Didn't like the female main character
I really did NOT like the main female character, and I couldn't figure out why the male MC did. I found her to be arrogant, self serving and pretty dense at times. She was judgemental about others and kind to her own shortcomings. It may have been deliberate on the author's part, but it didn't work for me. The mystery did, and I found that to be worth the book.

Boring!
There is no mystery, no suspense and female main characters are as dumb as can be. Very disappointing.
