About this audiobook

A would-be politician is found battered to death in the kitchen of his expensive home in a lovely Oxfordshire village. His wife's alibi is full of holes and there's another woman in the background. And what about his seemingly mild-mannered political rival?

DI Hillary Greene tries to get to the bottom of this perplexing murder. She certainly doesn't think the prime suspect is as guilty as everyone thinks.

Just as she's about to make a breakthrough, everything is turned upside down by a fatal development in another case she is working on . . .

Can Hillary find the murderer and will she survive a brush with one of Oxford's most dangerous criminals?

    The plot thickens!! A great next step in the DI Hillary Greene series... the groundwork was laid in the first two, and this 3rd book was a juicy & delicious read. Compelling under-story, truly British deadpan humor, and a believable and lovable main character.

    DI Hillary Greene is called to investigate the death of a local politcal candidate, but the case to catch the main drug dealer in the area intervenes with far ranging results.
    An interesting mystery, characters that are developing through-out the series makes an enjoyable read. Easily read as a stand-alone novel.

    This one was a disappointment; the murder case Hillary is involved in is uninteresting, the focus shifts away from it for large chunks of the novel, and its resolution underwhelming. More of the emphasis of the novel is on a raid and a corrupt senior officer, which was marginally more interesting, but ends abruptly and left me with lots of questions: SPOILERShow did Jerome know the significance of the Dick Francis novel? Previous instalments have harped on about how Hillary also knows the password - how did Jerome guess it? How did he even know which bank was involved?

    A good mystery I really enjoyed and recommend. Nice characters, good plot, well written.
    I will go and and get the previous instalment in this series.
    Highly recommended.
