About this listen

The body of Joanna Franks was found at Duke's Cut on the Oxford Canal at about 5.30 a.m. on Wednesday, 22nd June 1859. At around 10.15 a.m. on a Saturday morning in 1989, the body of Chief Inspector Morse, though very much alive, was removed to Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital. Treatment for a perforated ulcer was later pronounced successful. As Morse begins his recovery, he comes across an account of the investigation and trial that followed Joanna Frank's death...and becomes convinced that the two men hanged for her murder were innocent.© Colin Dexter; (P) Macmillan Publishers Ltd Historical Police Procedurals Traditional Detectives

Loved it!!

I have read the book but listening to Kevin Whately made so much better. He sounds like Morse! And Lewis of course. I highly recommend this book.
