The first in a stunning new crime series from international best seller Adam Croft.

A peaceful Sunday morning in Rutland is shattered when a dead body is discovered on the rocks at Normanton Church. The victim has been laid out in a crucifixion pose, facing the altar. DI Caroline Hills is certain there’s a religious connection - one which threatens the tranquillity of life in the area. The killer has gone to extraordinary lengths to make the symbolism clear. And the deaths will continue until Caroline and DS Dexter Antoine uncover the truth behind the dark secret - and what lies beneath.

Not impressed. The main character is annoying, self centered and critical. I made it about half way thru and then gave up. Plot is so-so. Narrator does a good job though. I'm skipping the rest of the series.

Meh - Skip This One

A light enjoyable detective mystery.
Being quite a short story, the characters aren't that developed, but the story had a good pace.
Good narration.

Enjoyable!

I am looking for a new British-set detective series with relatable characters. I liked this book
However, I found the secondary characters more interesting than the lead. I probably won't follow.

Thanks for the free listen

I am done with Audible's selection of thrillers, this one being part of a long line of truly awful books.

Really awful.

Fantastic narration but the main character is a horrible person. The story was lacking and numerous characters act quite unbelievably. It pulled me out of the story every time I shook my head act the actions these dummies repeatedly took. Keep your credits and find it at your library.

Terribly unlikable main character.

No likeable characters I couldn’t finish it. Main character so annoying. I very rarely stop listening. Didn’t even listen to last chapter to see who did it. I don’t care.

Terrible Main Character
