This has got to be the biggest load of rubbish I have listened to in a long time!
The story was tenuous at best with no firm plot and an ending that was not conducive to the alleged character references throughout the story.
The only good thing about it was the narration; but Elizabeth Knoweldon is far too good for this garbage!

If you like cosy crime this will be right up your street.
I think it was marginally spoilt for me by the narrator, who would be best placed reading childrens audio books.

The narration was outstanding but the story became quite difficult to continue listening to as Laura Elliot seemed too focused on drama and not so much on realism.
I understand that she has a lot of research experience in domestic violence but the main protagonist was rampaging around committing murder and mayhem without raising suspicions from the police or outsiders.
Overall it was well written albeit rather farfetched.

Jo Spain really knows how to weave a tale with a killer twist.
Highly recommended!

This is like a mixture of Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca and My cousin Rachel. John Telfer narrates it superbly but the story was too far-fetched. In the author's attempts to keep the reader guessing until the end, the story became frustrating and a tad absurd.

Rather unbelievable but a lovely piece of escapism. Elizabeth Knoweldon is excellent though as always.

Agatha Raisin never fails to entertain and Penelope Keith is my favourite narrator...the perfect combo!

Jane Casey serves up a smorgasbord of mystery and excitement once again and Caroline Lennon's narration is superb as always...I couldn't stop listening

Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft are the vanguard of gothic horror.
I've loved The Fall of The House of Usher for many years and William Roberts reads it brilliantly.

On the whole a good story and well.read by Gemma Oaten, but the over use of the same profane word (s**t) for expressing heightened emotions became waring and quite irritating.
