Summary
An Adam Dalgliesh Mystery When Commander Adam Dalgliesh visits Larksoken, a remote headland community on the Norfolk coast in the shadow of a nuclear power station, he expects to be engaged only in the sad business of tying up his aunt's estate. But the peace of Larksoken is illusory. A serial killer known as the Whistler is terrorising the neighbourhood and Dalgliesh is drawn into the lives of the headlanders when it quickly becomes apparent that the Whistler isn't the only murderer at work under the sinister shadow of the power station.

One of her best
I am so enjoying revisiting PDJames. I read them all a long time ago but listening to them is almost better. Daniel Weyman makes the whole experience an absolute joy. He is definitely one of the best narrators around. Anything read by him would sound good.
She is wonderful with her descriptions of people..Something I missed, or didn’t appreciate first time round, was her humour.
I really like Adam Dalgliesh as a character, even though he is a very private man. It’s what makes him attractive

Great Norfolk based tale
Enjoyed the steady narration, well delivered accents and humanity in this thriller. involving story that the narrator drew me into capturing the sense of place a human frailty after a violent and menacing start. Give it a go!

Pure brilliance.
Superb as always. I felt as though I had been transported to the Norfolk headland, lost in the Author's wonderful detail.
