Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of The Strings of Murder by Oscar de Muriel, read by Andy Secombe, including musical interludes recorded by the author himself.
Edinburgh, 1888. A virtuoso violinist is brutally killed in his home. But with no way in or out of the locked practice room, the murder makes no sense. Fearing a national panic over a copycat Ripper, Scotland Yard sends Inspector Ian Frey to investigate under the cover of a fake department specializing in the occult.
However, Frey's new boss, Detective Nine-Nails McGray, actually believes in such nonsense.
McGray's tragic past has driven him to superstition, but even Frey must admit this case seems beyond reason. And once someone loses all reason, who knows what they will lose next...

Geschichte
A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), The Stranger Times is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable. At least that's their pitch. The reality is rather less auspicious. Their editor is a drunken, foul-tempered and foul-mouthed husk of a man who thinks little of the publication he edits. His staff are a ragtag group of misfits. And as for the assistant editor...well, that job is a revolving door - and it has just revolved to reveal Hannah Willis, who's got problems of her own.

The first time somebody tried to kill him was an accident. The second time was deliberate. Now Paul Mulchrone finds himself on the run with nobody to turn to except a nurse who has read one-too-many crime novels and a renegade copper with a penchant for violence. Together they must solve one of the most notorious crimes in Irish history. Or else they’ll be history.

My name is Peter Grant and until January I was just probationary constable in that mighty army for justice known to all right-thinking people as the Metropolitan Police Service (as the Filth to everybody else). My only concerns in life were how to avoid a transfer to the Case Progression Unit - we do paperwork so real coppers don't have to - and finding a way to climb into the panties of the outrageously perky WPC Leslie May.

Camden, North London. A tangled, mangled junction of train lines, roads and waterways. Where minor celebrities hang out with minor criminals and where tourists and moody teenagers mingle. In the heart of Camden, where rail meets road meets leyline, you might find the Arcana Emporium, run by one Alex Verus. He won't sell you a wand or mix you a potion, but if you know what you're looking for, he might just be able to help.

It is the summer of 2013, and Abigail Kamara has been left to her own devices. This might, by those who know her, be considered a mistake. While her cousin, apprentice wizard and police Constable Peter Grant, is off in the sticks chasing unicorns, Abigail is chasing her own mystery. Teenagers around Hampstead Heath have been going missing, but before the police can get fully engaged, the teens return home - unharmed but vague about where they've been.

Geschichte
Ten years ago, six friends went on vacation. One made it out alive... In that instant, college student Quincy Carpenter became a member of a very exclusive club - a group of survivors the press dubbed “The Final Girls”: Lisa, who lost nine sorority sisters to a college dropout's knife; Sam, who endured the Sack Man during her shift at the Nightlight Inn; and now Quincy, who ran bleeding through the woods to escape the massacre at Pine Cottage. Despite the media's attempts, the three girls have never met.

great series
The Frey & McGray series is excellent and it gets better with each new title. It spoiled me for many other mystery series. There are great characters and the stories are interesting, unpredictable and thrilling - plus really good humour. And Andy Secombe's performance only enhances those parts. I can't wait for the next book, and the one after that and many more

Gothic thriller with a sense of humour
Auf welchen Platz würden Sie The Strings of Murder auf Ihrer Hörbuch-Bestenliste setzen?
Hugely enjoyable. The story is engaging, the characters are well-developed and amusing and the murders are horribly gruesome. This Gothic murder mystery is brilliantly performed by Andy Secombe.

not my taste
I gave up after chapter 3. The lead character failed to come to life other than as an insufferable pseudo posh twat, with the accompanying players staying two dimensional caricatures of "bad ole times gone by". And the writing wasn't that good either. ("I got an urgent message, urging me...") sorry, not for me.

Nice period crime story
Decent period crime novel. Not the best detective duo story ever, as the characters still need to be flashed out further, but promising as a series nonetheless. Beware of the scottish accent, which makes the audiobook in my opinion but can be tricky. Good read for all those who enjoy Agatha Christy, Conan Doyle or the Akunin books.

Humorvoll und spannend
und eine schöne Zurückversetzung in frühere Zeiten. Der englische Sprecher macht seine Sache sehr gut, der schottische Akzent ist zuerst aber sehr heftig, dann hat man sich reingehört. Von der Art zu lesen erinnert er mich an Christian Tramitz bei den Rita Falk Hörbüchern.
