About this listen

Meredith and Markby are almost ready to leave on a long planned canal barge trip, but Meredith is having reservations. Then the 12-year-old corpse of a missing teenage girl is dug up in the local graveyard. The vacation is off (to Meredith's relief), but the investigation is on.©2004 Ann Granger (P)2004 W.F.

This is one of Anne Granger's more plausible stories, at least some of it, and one of her better books. The story was well-constructed and the characters easy to remember, which is important in an audio book. Meredith Mitchell, Inspector Markby's companion, plays a bigger part in the detection of the crimes in this book than in some others. It's a long recording, but it never flags and is excellently read by Judith Boyd.

Plausible and engaging story
