About this listen

A lump of concrete dropped deliberately from a little stone bridge kills the wrong person. The young woman in the car behind is spared. But only for a while... A few weeks later, George Marshalson lives every father's worst nightmare: he discovers the murdered body of his eighteen-year-old daughter on the side of the road. Wexford steps into the case but soon a second teenage girl is murdered - a victim unquestionably linked to the first - and another family is shattered...

Keen life observations

Non cliche, detailed observations of people’s idiosyncrasies, that cloud rather than define the story trajectory, in a realistic ways

Bored to tears..

The story line was not strong. I enjoyed the narrator however, it all dragged on for too long in my opinion.

Not bad story

Story was ok but I dislike the reading. The voice acting sounded Victorian and too posh for a modern day story imo.

A bit over contrived

The performance was very well done and the story has its moments but it is a bit of a slow burner and a rather over contrived story. But still worth a listen.
