Sneaky!

Another twisty tale from Oxfordshire.
The murder victim is a fifteen year old boy who turns out to be a very nasty little git. The list of suspects just keeps growing until an ending that totally blindsided me!
Gemma Dawson is the voice actor who really brings even more credibility to the story.

Great story with a surprise twist at the end

I loved this book because Hillary Greene is a fascinating character with her insight into her suspects' minds. Her interrogations are more like therapy sessions that result in astonishing revelations. Love it! I am loving the anticipation of a courtship battle, between two investigators, over her favor .

Great

I enjoy Faith Martin’s books. She covers every detail, and one never knows the murderer until the end. Bravo!

Great story and narrator, except…

…the ending was disappointing. Not terrible, just not as good as the rest of the book. Until the last chapter I had decided to give it 5 stars. Still, I think this was the best of the Hilary Green books yet, and I do recommend it. I’m ready for the next one.

These books are so quiet it can
be a challenge to pay attention for clues and figure out who-done-it and -why. I do love the British accent and idioms that sprinkle conversation. Narrator's wok is excellent.

And the hits just keep in coming!

FMartin has done it again! Continual development of relatable heroine and supporting cast of characters. Hillary, thankfully continues to be gritty, intelligent, and discerning! Thank you Ms Martin for NOT making her into some wishy washy love struck milk sop! Please keep her strong willed & capable! As long as THAT happens i'll keep buying every installment!

Enjoyable detective series

Dislike the drunken lazy personality of the Sergeant but that’s why they write him that way.
