This was my first venture into audiobooks and I really enjoyed it. The storyline was very good in all three books, with a good balance between the plot and the backstory of the main characters’ lives. It was very well narrated, in a measured even pace and the narrator used a number of different voices which added to the enjoyment. I found it very easy to listen to and very engaging. I’m now looking forward to reading the next few novels. Definitely enjoyable!

Really great listen

It’s really hard to tell if this is a series to stick with. One thing I can say is that I’m Really Very Glad that I bought this box set and not just the first title, because I really didn’t care for “Episode One” at all.

I liked that I got to meet all of the protagonists in and around the Police Station, but very few of them were truly likeable characters! It helped me to think of Meredith as Gene Hunt (Philip Glenister - Life on Mars), which made him more acceptable. However, Patsy Hodge is a total misrepresentation of a strong decisive woman! Freddie (Sherlock), is no better <sigh>…

I would have given up at this point and not looked back, but I had Episodes 2 and 3 to digest, so I persevered. I’m glad that I did.

These Episodes are broken down into two (subsequently three) components:- the interpersonal relationships between the characters and, depending on how you relate to them, the crime/mystery/murder.

I truly don’t like many of the relationships (except maybe Chris and Sarah), but I find the “Day Job” narratives very interesting. Because of the various relationships and interactions, the story takes a long time to tell (I frequently found myself increasing the narration speed, just to get through it, at times). However they are interesting and innovative.

Because I listened to all 3, I’m minded to continue purchasing the Box Sets. In this format, they are exceptional value for money and they link up well. I’m sure that everything from this point onwards will be better than Episode One (which was just a mess)!

The narration was pretty impressive, I do like the new DS’ and Nancy’s portrayals. To be honest, I could do with less of Meredith and Hodge’s private lives.

Love to hate or hate to love this series!

This book had me enthralled from the start, Lee’s brilliant narration helps bring the characters to life and the story is so well written with such a clever plot. The relationship between Meredith and Hodge is so well played out but also how their relationship affects those around them and their professional work life. The storyline of murder, abduction and the ensuing mind games made this one of my favourite books ever. I’d recommend it if you like a murder mystery.

Murder, abduction and a brilliant plot.
