About this listen

Looking for a brilliant best-selling murder mystery with a feisty female detective? Meet DI HILLARY GREENE, a policewoman struggling to save her career and catch criminals.

Wayne Sutton is found dead by a stream in a beautiful meadow. His head has been bashed in and a red paper heart left on his body. The handsome young artist had a reputation as a ladies' man. DI Hillary Greene discovers that many wealthy married women were buying his paintings and taking ‘private' art lesson from him. It appears that several of them might have wanted him dead.

Hillary also has a new detective sergeant, Gemma Fordham. Seemingly efficient and pleasant, she harbors a secret agenda. Can Hillary get to the bottom of a complex case involving jealousy, love, and cold-blooded murder? This is a crime mystery full of well-observed characters, which will have you gripped from start to finish.

MURDER IN THE MEADOW is the seventh in a series of crime thrillers set in Oxfordshire. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Colin Dexter, or Ruth Rendell.

This series is enjoyable light listening, in the main.
Does no-one 'proof listen' these books? This narrator seems to struggle with the English language at times. Her pronunciation of simple words is rather strange. Thankfully is doesn't spoil the story but it is rather irritating.
Hence the scores.

let down by the narrator

Great next episode

Good plotting with an array of interesting red herrings and a further shake up of the original team, which adds to the possibilities. I just wish the (otherwise excellent) narrator would have her pronunciation checked. This has jarred in all the novels in this series to date.

I wish someone would listen to this narration as an editor would. There are so many mispronunciations that it really grates. All that is needed is an audible edit. It’s a shame, she has a nice voice but the mispronunciations really spoil the performance

Love all this series of DI Hilary Green

First by author, don't mind giving a try. Spoiled by terrible narrator. Enjoyed story & characters but not narrator. I have 500± in my library & this is my first poor review.

Good story, rotten narration
