Dubbed by the Sunday Times as, 'Simply the best detective writer since Agatha Christie' and by the Yorkshire Post as 'the most underrated British crime writer', Caroline Graham is the author of five previous Inspector Barnaby novels..
When young and troubled Carlotta disappears from ex-vicar Lionel Lawrence's house, blackmail and murder follow. It's up to Chief Inspector Barnaby to dig through the layers of trouble before more occurs. British writer Graham serves up another of her likable mysteries, which have also been adapted for television. Narrator Hugh Ross, who has read other Graham books featuring Barnaby, has an unusually calm demeanor; this is a reading, rather than a performance. His deliberate style doesn't excite, but it does keep the listener from losing track of the complicated plot. All in all, a comfortingly good listen.
