About this listen

A young man's mutilated body is found on top of the Agglestone.

It seems that he was involved in a human trafficking and prostitution gang. But why is DCI Sophie Allen keeping something back from her team? Is it linked to the extraordinary discovery of her own father's body at the bottom of a disused mineshaft, more than 40 years after he disappeared?

Deadly Crimes is the second in a new series of police detective thrillers featuring DCI Sophie Allen, head of the recently formed Violent Crime Unit in Dorset. An English county which includes a stunning section of the coastline, but whose beauty belies darkness beneath the surface.

Another comfy crime read.

Another enjoyable tale of Sophie Allen. Nothing too confronting but realistic just the same. You cant go wrong with a Michael Hambling story

Good story spoilt by narrater

Enjoyed the storyline but the narration was stilted and awkward. Put me off listening to the rest of the series.

Narrator really put me off

To be honest the narration was so bad I abandoned the book, despite the story being quite good. Stilted, appalling attempts at voices for different characters, the male characters all sound really weird

A laboured telling

This story line should have been good however the laboured telling of it proved boring and uninteresting.
A no stage did the story capture the readers attention or interest. Even the reader's voice tended to put the listener to sleep.
A most disappointing story
