About this listen

Winter, snow, murder—and a centuries-dead suspect.

In the chilly depths of a Yorkshire winter, a well-liked rector is found bludgeoned to death in her own church. With no sign of a murder weapon, local superstition quickly pins the blame on the ghost of a medieval monk believed to haunt the building...

Well accustomed to unusual murder investigations, DCI Jim Oldroyd takes on the case, along with his assistant, Sergeant Andy Carter, but they are hampered at every turn by the deepening snow and the threat of the supernatural. Even as possible motives and opportunities begin to reveal themselves, Oldroyd struggles to find a better suspect than the hooded phantom.

Has Oldroyd really found himself in the midst of a Gothic ghost story, or is there a very real killer at large? Spectre or otherwise, it soon becomes apparent that the murderer is not yet finished. And, for Oldroyd, it’s about to become personal...

Great whodunit.

Good characters and ingenious plot. Not 'gritty ' but all about the detection rather than the blood! The narrator performed well but had a rather elderly voice which made everyone sound like pensioners! Once you get past that, a most enjoyable listen.

Enjoyable listen

I was not keen on Mr Paige's narration when I first started this series but after listening to this book I think he's finally grown on me.
The story is intriguing and entertaining, although very sad in places, I definitely recommend this to mystery fans and to those who love Yorkshire.

Suckered by a good description again.

I resent paying to be preached at. I thought I’d marked the author down as a drip but obviously hadn’t. The detective would have been killed by his colleagues before making sergeant, enough said. The author has obviously tried to write her ideal man, lord help him.
Every person is over explained, phrases are used to death, the dialogue is really funny. Sort of ‘50’s middle class even if it’s coming out with a rural brogue. I’ll never buy another.
Most stars go to the person who write the teaser synopsis, brilliant work, well done but I won’t get fooled again.

The plot ok but poor narration.

The narrator made everyone sound ancient which detracted from the story line. Would not listen to another one with the narrator.
