About this listen

An intriguing mystery story combining seafood, murder and a multitasking heroine in a gorgeous seaside location from best-selling author Julie Wassmer.

Pearl Nolan always wanted to be a detective, but life and a teenage pregnancy got in the way of a police career and instead she built up a successful seafood restaurant in her coastal home town of Whitstable - famous for its native oysters.

Now, at 39, and with son Charlie away at university, Pearl finds herself suffering from empty nest syndrome...until she discovers the drowned body of local oyster fisherman Vinnie Rowe, weighted down with an anchor chain, on the eve of Whitstable’s annual oyster festival.

Is it a tragic accident, suicide - or murder?

Pearl seizes the opportunity to prove her detection skills and discover the truth, but she soon finds herself in conflict with Canterbury city police detective, Chief Inspector Mike McGuire. Then another body is discovered - and Pearl finds herself trawling the past for clues, triggering memories of another emotional summer more than 20 years ago....

Thank you to the lovely voice that narrated this story, well done. I have turned off books just because the narrator grated or lacked the talent to be many characters at a time. I will listen to the next story simply because of her. Thank you for sharing your talents both Author and Narrator.

Great voices make a story!

I don't know if it was the narrator or the story, but it was so boring and so monotone and so dull that I almost fell asleep trying to get through the first five or six chapters. Then I just finally gave up.

So boring
