Über diesen Titel

A dangerous book. A hidden secret. A deadly betrayal.

The Oxford Literary Festival is in full swing, but Detective Inspector Bridget Hart isn't there to learn about books. Instead, she's been given the task of protecting Diane Gilbert, a controversial author who has received a death threat. Diane doesn't seem to think she needs Bridget's protection, but when the worst happens, Bridget's role switches to running a murder enquiry.

The only clues Bridget has to go on relate to Diane's new book which examines the murky world of international arms deals. Under pressure to identify the killer, Bridget finds herself drawn into the clandestine world of foreign governments and the British Security Service. She'll need all her wiles and the full cooperation of her team to follow the twisting trail of evidence to its logical conclusion.

I so wanted to like this series - and the murder itself is a fresh start to this new installment - but no, the book didn't deliver. I don't mind so much if a plot is predictable at times - yet the problem here are the protagonists who are just increasingly annoying and unlikeable. Why do they (Bridget especially) feel like they need to take on the responsibility for everything if they turn out to be incapable anyway? At one point someone says to Bridget something along the lines of "You're a police detective, so obviously you have observational skills" - well, actually she doesn't have them, or why does she hurry to hush-hush embassy appointments without properly looking at the crime scenes for clues first?!

Promising... but ultimately disappointing

With time the main characters have grown on me. Anyway… somehow the crime outcomes are very predictable. My recommendation is listen to the first story book right to the end in order. The narration is very good in consideration of all the different characters to give their own distinctive voices.
