Publisher's summary

Read by Samuel West, known for his roles in Van Helsing and Notting Hill.

Last Bus to Woodstock is the novel that began Colin Dexter's phenomenally successful Inspector Morse series.


'Do you think I'm wasting your time, Lewis?'
Lewis was nobody's fool and was a man of some honesty and integrity.
'Yes, sir.'
An engaging smile crept across Morse's mouth. He thought they could get on well together . . .

The death of Sylvia Kaye figured dramatically in Thursday afternoon's edition of the Oxford Mail. By Friday evening Inspector Morse had informed the nation that the police were looking for a dangerous man – facing charges of wilful murder, sexual assault and rape.

But as the obvious leads fade into twilight and darkness, Morse becomes more and more convinced that passion holds the key . . .

Last Bus to Woodstock is followed by the second Inspector Morse book, Last Seen Wearing.

A great series from Colin Deter and well narrated

A great series from Colin Deter and well narrated by Samuel West. One investigation leads to another as they slowly become linked in unexpected ways and surprises in the plot continue right up until the end. A top tier effort.

A restorative

Where does Last Bus to Woodstock rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

quite high

Who was your favorite character and why?

Morse; always.

What about Samuel West’s performance did you like?

The pace, the punctuation, the absence of the usual English exaggerated dramatization. Just outstanding.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Look up the Tv series, enough.

Any additional comments?

An enormous restorative to the original series; brilliant narration
