Really enjoyable

I am delightfully surprised by that book, as I discovered it as part of my subscription.
Although that adapter reader might have guessed that killer quite ahead of the leading investigator, the story is written divertingly, the characters offer a promise of interesting development in the next book to come.
Esther Wayne does a remarkably good job bringing the protagonist to life with her incredible voice.

I enjoyed the book,

Even though it was easy to foresee who did the killing. The atmosphere of Oxford was very enjoyable.

Lots of twists

Liked the characters, the plot and the surprising twists. Even the subtle romance was nice, Nicely told

Great series

I started listening to this series because it was included in my subscription. I was surprised how good it is and that I hadn't come across it earlier. The plot is refined and the voice of the narrator is very pleasant.

Really good!

If only one person is speaking usually one gender is represented not entirely convincing. ;-) Happened here again. Leaving that aside the hearbook was - as mentioned above - really good. Recommendation.

Included in subscription

To be fair, I wouldn't have bought this, but as a title included in the subscription I was positively surprised. Aside from the cringe-inducing, unrealistic portrayal of the victim, it was a nice enough story. I listen for research purposes and the little details here and there really do what they're supposed to do. Very evocative, no unnecessary page-long descriptions of essentially boring stuff. The reader's voice is lovely, and her style is easy to listen to for a few hours.

Edit: the conclusion is nonsensical

Nice audiobook

You can listen to it and eventually you want to know who the murderer is. But there are a bit too many suspects. The characters are simply portrayed, but perhaps they will develop. I'm very spoilt by the narrator of the JD Kirk audiobooks.

Boring and inconsistent

I only listened to the audiobook because it was included in the subscription.
A less than mediocre plot, a repetitive storyline and a narrator who has a very limited ability of portraying different characters. In dialogues with male characters it was especially irritating because the narrator made every man sound the same: artificially trying to lower her voice and giving it an annoying aggressive, slightly bellowing undertone.
Just presenting one suspect after another in a mechanical way does not make things better in the suspense department either.
No recommendation from me.
