About this listen

An award-winning beer worth killing for. Can DCI Oldroyd find the killer before last orders?

Steeped in a history of award-winning Yorkshire ale, the town of Markham boasts not one but two breweries. Richard Foster runs one; his sister, Emily, along with her partner, Janice, runs the other. And not without some resentment.

The unwelcome return of the town’s former bad boy, Brendan Scholes, threatens to ignite the sibling rivalry further. Scholes claims to have found the long-lost secret recipe to the beer that made Richard and Emily’s father famous, and he wants money.

But it isn’t long before Scholes’ body is found floating in a fermentation tank at one of the breweries, his head caved in by a hammer. DCI Oldroyd and Andy Carter are called in to investigate the murder, and there’s no shortage of suspects.

As rumours of the possible existence of a recipe for the famous beer spread against a backdrop of growing homophobia and misogyny, tempers run high. With Markham’s beer industry at stake, a killer on the loose and the town’s residents out for blood, Oldroyd needs to solve the murder before someone else is killed…

I like the way the characters are true to the other books, the dialogue is always interesting and when you are hearing about the scenery you can picture yourself there. Story was a little predictable but very good.

Easy going listen

As usual - a great story told by a great narrator. No foul language, blood etc. just a good story told in a good Yorkshire accent

I really look forward to every new book in the series and they never disappoint!! The stories are always full of excellent facts and lots of twists and turns and there are always brilliant curve balls!! The characters lives continue to unfold in interesting ways and as always I love Michael Page’s honest and fab narration!! Back to looking forward to the next now……. 😊😊

Another Brilliant Yorkshire Mystery!!

Yorkshire history and countryside is brilliantly evoked for me in this series of murder mysteries. And what aspect will the next in the series address I wonder?
