About this listen

The discovery of a young woman’s body drifting down the Thames, her hair adorned with flowers and her legs wrapped in blue silk like a mermaid’s tail, presents Lord Jason Redmond and Inspector Daniel Haze with a puzzling new mystery. Who was she, why was she murdered, and what led the killer to leave her body displayed this way? Was it an act of love, meant to make the victim appear beautiful in death, or was there a more sinister reason?

As Redmond and Haze delve deeper into her life, they learn that the victim harbored shocking secrets and had crossed paths with a feared kingpin of London’s criminal underworld.

Will Redmond and Haze solve the murder before the killer strikes again?

I have thoroughly enjoyed this series and was so looking forward to Murder of a Mermaid. As usual the story does not disappoint. Mt issue is with the change of narrator. In previous books Lord Jason Redmond had a strong and easily identifiable voice which made the dialogue between himself and Danial Haze easy on the ears. Personally, I find the lack of distinction between Redmond and Haze a disappointment.

I really like this sries

The story was good with a twist that kept me guessing. However, the narration was very distracting. At times there was very little difference between the ‘character voices’ and the narrator. I also found the narrator’s voice a little grating.

Disappointing.

I love this series but why the change of narrator?? It totally threw me when I began listening, although she tried there were so many times when the character's voices didn't change which broke the story at one point 2 men where talking and narration was included but the voice was never changed!
Another really good plot and story but PLEASE bring back the original narrator

why change narrator after 10 books???

Why change narrator? this one is poor, no difference in the characters' accents etc. very distracting as the voice is too husky.

I found this audiobook as I am a huge fan of Alex Lee's narration. Loved the way Irina's writing evoked the atmosphere and some of the underworld characters of Victorian London , All brought to life so vividly by Alex's voice acting skills. A winning combination !!
I appreciate we all like different voices but there is no way anyone could or should say that the narration was 'terrible' ! Alex Lee is perfect for this book and i loved it.

Brilliant book & narration

Loved these storylines and by book 8 I’d felt like I’d really got to grip with the characters. Then the narrator changed. Didn’t find it as easy to follow. Disappointing.

Love these stories but please bring back the old narrator

Any change of actor takes a bit of getting used to. However I was soon engrossed with the story and by the end had completely forgotten the previous narrator. Great all round! Looking forward to the next book!

Hooked from the start!

Preferred the old narrator. The new one’s accents aren’t as good and seems to get muddled from character to character.

Excellent
