About this listen
Keeping on top of the family funeral directors' and private-investigation businesses is no easy task for the Skelf women, and when matriarch Dorothy discovers a human foot while walking the dog, a perplexing case presents itself....
Daughter Jenny and granddaughter Hannah have their hands full, too: the mysterious circumstances of a dying woman lead them into an unexpected family drama, Hannah's new astrophysicist colleague claims he's receiving messages from outer space, and the Skelfs' teenaged lodger has yet another devastating experience. Nothing is clear as the women are immersed ever deeper in their most challenging cases yet. When the daughter of Jenny's violent and fugitive ex-husband goes missing without trace, real danger presents itself, and all three Skelfs are in peril.

Not as Good as Books 1 and 2
Although I enjoyed Book 3, it was not to the same standard as the earlier books - there was too much truly unbelievable stuff going on to make it anything other than closer to fantasy than fiction. I had more than one eye roll moment, such as when 71 year old Dorothy went with armed police on “a bust”. No civilian in her position would ever have been allowed on a dangerous police operation, and yet there she was. Otherwise, there were big predator cats roaming Edinburgh pouncing on citizens, a man in his 20s in love with a woman in her 60s, a kidnapping, incestuous twins, and the ever present Craig who, also unbelievably, managed to evade the police for a year. Well written, and Sarah Barron is always good (setting aside the New Zealand accent) but the story line was just too much.

Boring narration
This is probably a good story but the narration is so boring I couldn’t continue with it
