Sometimes I found the 'female' voice read within the main chapters a bit irritating, it put me in mind of a drag queen , or an older woman with twin set and pearls. Yet that is not how I saw the characters. It was otherwise well read and the characters visible within the words and the path through the tale was clear and easy to follow.
I did feel a little annoyed that the aggressive mental health patients were portrayed through the accents as rough working class. Yet the words did not necessitate this and could as easily been read as a middle class accent.
The story was believable and gripped my imagination and I was looking forward to hearing each chapter.
highly recommend this to murder mystery fans. It doesn't introduce a new character towards the end, which is a real cheat regularly used by less imaginative and lower quality writers. This book shows the imagination the faces of the characters through effective descriptions that create a character. Enough words spoken gives as the writer slowly brings the clues together allows the mind to hear the meanings. As the book progresses the meaning of the previous mysterious happenings become clear, or do they? A surprising and excellent book well worth listening or reading.
keeps the suspense right up to the final chapter
