About this listen

The peace of a Midlands village is upset when local businessman Harry Bowers doesn’t return from choir practice.

More concerned than the man’s own wife, it would seem, investigating officer Detective Sergeant Sunita Roy becomes convinced he has been done away with.

But there is no trace of the man, just a litany of evidence of an ailing marriage and a nose-diving business venture.

In charge of her first serious case, DS Roy will struggle to win the respect of her colleagues—in particular her Brummie boss, DCI Gavin Roscoe. All that whilst fighting off the intentions of an increasingly desperate suitor.

Who had it in for the budding chorister? And is Roy tough enough to break down the defences and prejudices of Middle England?

Being a Brummie lass it was lovely to hear references to local places, especially as I used to live on Cateswell Road! The accents were distinct that brought the characters to life although I found the Birmingham accents a little over emphasised. Good story line.

Colin Mace’s narration was very good as always. I enjoyed how he read this story in a ‘straightforward’ manner, almost documentary style, but then acted out the characters’ dialogues. And did so very well indeed. The narration carried the book because it’s not the best written, but nevertheless the story is inventive and involved. I recommend highly. Better than most I’ve actually paid for.

Very good for a ‘free’ listen. Very well narrated
