About this listen

From the number-one international best-selling author of Holy Island and Impostor.

A murder for the history books.

After a long and eventful winter, DCI Ryan and his team are looking forward to the joys of spring. But, when one of their colleagues is shot dead on her own doorstep and the brass think it’s an inside job, Ryan finds himself drafted in to investigate.

He’s barely scratched the surface when reports flood in of a terror explosion at Durham Cathedral. Chaos descends on the sleepy, historic city and, when the smoke clears, they find a priceless artefact that once belonged to Saint Cuthbert is missing.

With tensions running at an all-time high, unable to trust the local police, can Ryan and his team bring a killer to justice — and restore Cuthbert’s cross to its natural resting place?

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular landscape of County Durham.

Another one from the pen of LJ Ross. I love the historical dimension all these crime novels bring. I wish they were longer. All the regular characters have become friends and I would love to meet a real life Philips...he's my favorite.

I love the very imperfect Ryan. But I thought the last book was awful. ( to Agatha Christie like)
And I really like this book but the ending was crappy.
Very disappointing and both way to short.

I thought the ending was weak and not to her usual amazing standard. Everything happened right in the last 10 minutes and was difficult to see how it related to the whole story. Also, left not knowing the full story…

Not as good
