About this listen

A priceless violin. And a dark secret someone is prepared to kill for.

DCI Oldroyd has seen his fair share of victims, but he has never witnessed a murder - until now. When world-famous violinist Hans Muller is shot and killed during a concert, the detective is faced with a case beyond logic. The culprit is nowhere to be found - and the victim’s priceless violin has disappeared too.

As Oldroyd investigates the mystery of the murderer’s identity and the motive for the killing, he enters the ruthless world of wealthy instrument collectors and stumbles upon a dark path where shocking secrets have been buried in the past. But the secrets will soon take centre stage.

Oldroyd must use all his cunning to recover the priceless instrument. But can he also solve the mystery of a murderer who vanished in front of his own eyes?

Revised edition: This edition of The Quartet Murders includes editorial revisions.

Wow what a twisted story this turned out to be… I loved the brogue although at times I had to go back to hear it again to catch what was being said🚐

I really enjoyed the story

Was a great storyline with lots of twists, interns and I loved all the information about the musical instrument. The characters are starting to become more well-known and I love the backstory about their relationships. Also the narrator on this book is so much better than the last one who, in a way ruins, the story for me, but this guy is way better.

Almost a masterpiece

A very interesting and academic stidy woven around fiction. The intermittently dispersed facts and fictious historical tradegy is knitted together well and again, that northern character comes shining through.

Fluctuating from good to boreing

I did find the music interesting and the history of the back story I enjoyed. But it’s not all that great.
