This remarkable adaptation of the hit television show Broadchurch from Erin Kelly (based on Chris Chibnall series) tells the story of a shattered family, a reeling town, and the two imperfect detectives trying to bring them answers.

In the sleepy British seaside town of Broadchurch, Detective Ellie Miller has just returned from vacation, only to learn that she's been passed over for a promotion at work in favor of outsider Alec Hardy. He, escaping the spectacular failure of his last case, is having trouble finding his way into this tight-knit community wary of new faces. But professional rivalry aside, both detectives are about to receive some terrible news: 11-year-old Danny Latimer has been found murdered on the beach.

For Ellie it's a personal blow; Danny was her older son's best friend. She can't believe anyone in Broadchurch would ever have harmed him. But Alec considers everyone, even Danny's parents, suspect in his death. It's a living nightmare for everyone involved...even before the press arrive and start stirring up the secrets every town member keeps hidden behind closed doors.

this had some of the best writing I have listened to on Audible. As one of other reviewer pointed out, this was made incredibly visual by Erin Kelly. Can't wait to read something else by her

Great Writing

Plot stalls a little in the middle, but the atmosphere is well set. The end is shocking. A good thriller if you like stories that show the dark sides of people.

Creepy story that gets better as it goes along

This audiobook covers the full series 1 of the Broadchurch television show, plus includes internal character dialogue to flesh out a bit extra. An interesting listen, and at a good pace.

Im so glad I finally broke down and got this recording. I put it off since it was written after show completed, but now Im so glad I got it. It defines and deepens the characters in a way not captured on film. Very well written and narrated. Worth it as a stand alone story as well.
If only it had a bit of the soundtrack by Olafur Arnalds to add to the ambience.....

Powerful

What did you like best about this story?

Without saying any thing that might "spoil" the ending, I love the way in the end the loose ends come together/pay off. Every character has a purpose.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes. Very compelling.

Any additional comments?

I just started watching the TV series having first listened to this. And I keep feeling like I have already SEEN it. The way this is written and narrated I experienced the story completely, including visualizing it.

Amazingly visual experience

This is probably the best audiobook that I have purchased in a year and a half. Totally engrossing mystery with great narration. I'm looking forward to watching the television version soon. Recommend wholeheartedly.

Awesome!
