About this listen

A SERIAL KILLER ON A POISONOUS MISSION PUSHES NIKKI AND HER TEAM TO BREAKING POINT

Revellers are flocking into Greenborough for the yearly Dark Greenborough Festival, a three-day event celebrating local folklore, superstition, and the darker side of life.

What the public doesn't know is that there has been a warning sent to the police, saying that Greenborough will be a very dangerous place this year. The anonymous letter ends with the Latin phrase, Mors certa, hora incerta: Death is certain, the hour uncertain.

DI Nikki Galena and her team soon discover this is no hoax, as people start dying from what appears to be alcoholic poisoning. Things rapidly escalate, and as the deaths get more horrific, Nikki realizes they have a serial killer in their midst.

Luckily I was engrossed enough in the story to be able to mostly shut off my irritation with the narrator's rendition of a high-pitched posh-type voice and over emphasises like she's reading a "Boys Own" adventure. The northern English accents were a balm to my ears.

Enjoyable, but keeping track of the characters difficult. Especially if first book you have listened too from this author. Once again can only listen to at 90% speed. Narrater talks very fast, especially on main characters. Some accents grate on the ears. The pronunciation of “us” as “uz” by all characters whether educated at public school or on the streets is particularly noticeable.
Enjoyable story otherwise, but hard to accept that a villain can be so cruel and evil , but accepted amongst peers in normal life as a nice man.

Starting to get over complicated with story and characters.
