From AudioFile

Charles Paris travels to Edinburgh to give a performance of his own one-man show but becomes the investigator of a mysterious murder. Simon Brett reads his own work in a resonant and engaging voice. The listener is drawn into the case by the depth and feeling of Brett's portrayal of his characters. The range of Brett's expressions allows him to give each of the characters a distinct sound, adding to the flavor of the work as a whole. The flow of the work is well-paced, and this results in a program easy to follow and easy to listen to. S.J.L. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
