About this listen

 The odd couple of detection, the brilliant but cranky Arthur Bryant and John May of London's Peculiar Crimes Unit, return in a tense, atmospheric new thriller that keeps you guessing right to the end. This time the detectives are up against a series of bizarre murders that defy human understanding, and a killer no human hand may be able to stop. A mysterious stranger in outlandish Edwardian garb defaces a painting in the National Gallery. Then a guest at the exclusive Savoy Hotel is fatally bitten by what appears to be a marshland snake. An outbreak of increasingly bizarre crimes has hit London, and, fittingly, come to the attention of the Peculiar Crimes Unit.©2005 Christopher Fowler, Defiant Films (P)2006 W. F. Howes Ltd.

Critic Reviews

"A twisty thriller, full of action and plot surprises." ( Publishers Weekly)
All stars
Most relevant
These two most unusual detectives of Scotland Yards Peculiar Crimes unit pulled through yet again!
The plot is peculiar and unusual, of course, but reliably interesting. I liked too, the two little side stories ( I'm neither a reviewer nor critic, this is how I think of the stories within the main story) .
I can't say I find these books riveting and exciting, but enjoyable they most certainly are, and I always learn a little more of Londons' history.
Another reason to listen is the narration of Tim Goodman, my benchmark for excellence in narration is Aimee Bruneau, she, of course, is 100%. Tim Goodman is 98%.
