About this listen
Meet the Skelfs: well-known Edinburgh family, proprietors of a long-established funeral-home business, and private investigators....
When patriarch Jim dies, it's left to his wife Dorothy, daughter Jenny and granddaughter Hannah to take charge of both businesses, kicking off an unexpected series of events. Dorothy discovers mysterious payments to another woman, suggesting that Jim wasn't the husband she thought he was.
Hannah's best friend Mel has vanished from university, and the simple adultery case that Jenny takes on leads to something far darker than any of them could have imagined. As the women struggle to come to terms with their grief, and the demands of the business threaten to overwhelm them, secrets from the past emerge, which change everything....

An okay story with a bit of a twist but Doug Johnstone should not be put in the same category as JD Kirk for crime fiction as suggested by a recent journalist and why I decided to give the author a go. He is NOTHING like him! JD Kirk being my favourite crime author, I was thoroughly disappointed with this book by Doug Johnstone. It was slow and repetitive with the language and themes, often coming across as very anti men (and I am a woman!). The characters were not very likeable, lacked depth and were boring and often angry and irritating. The narrator was fairly monotonous and monotone and should be reading romance or children’s books, definitely not crime. Her accents were awful and I was often confused about which character was speaking? Overall it was boring and disappointing and I won’t be buying the next in the series.
