About this listen

The luxury mansion on New Zealand's Lake Waihoe was the ideal place for the world-famous soprano to rest after her triumphant tour. Chief Superintendent Alleyn and his wife were among the houseguests - but theirs was not a social visit.

When tragedy struck, the peace of the island was shattered. With a houseful of suspects now isolated by one of the lake's sudden storms, Alleyn was to face one of his trickiest cases....

Not a great one

Perhaps because Roderick is far from his professional environment he seems very much adrift in this clumsy story and even the narrator lowers the standard for voices and tones. I lost interest an hour before the end which is extremely unusual for an NM novel.

Very Silly

I am usually a fan of this author but this must have been one of her last works, very silly and untenable plot. Only saving grace is her lovely use of language in dialogue.
