Foxglove Summer

Rivers of London, Book 5

De: Ben Aaronovitch

Narrado por: Kobna Holdbrook-Smith

In the fifth of his best-selling series Ben Aaronovitch takes Peter Grant out of whatever comfort zone he might have found and takes him out of London - to a small village in Herefordshire where the local police are reluctant to admit that there might be a supernatural element to the disappearance of some local children. But while you can take the London copper out of London you can't take the London out of the copper.

Travelling west with Beverley Brook, Peter soon finds himself caught up in a deep mystery and having to tackle local cops and local gods. And what's more all the shops are closed by 4pm....

exceptional

I love the detail in the characters and the pace of the narrative. this series is exceptional

perfect narration

I don't think I would love this series as much as I do if I read it instead of having it read to me by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith. His accents are sometimes a little dodgy but it doesn't matter because his voices make each character so distinct that I can clearly picture them.
Or maybe I would. This is a smart and funny series.

Sarcasm and duty

This book has been a true joy to read. I laughed every couple of pages. Satire, police regulations, fantasy characters and a down to earth, detective chores. The protagonist is funny, ever so slightly haunted by fate and lust.

Another must read

Masterly crafted and read.
A difficult to put down book, but short but another in the series to look forward to!

brilliant work

love the series 5 stars - I just wish I could swim in those rivers .......

Always pleased

The best series that I can't get enough of. Kobna is a fantastic narrator. I need to listen to the next one!!

Brilliant

This series just gets better and better. I can’t wait to finish the whole series just so I can start it again

I'm happy.

A good story but sadly I begin to see the end of this great series of books.
Hopefully the author will write more.

Best one yet!

I love how the characters and story are developing over each book. I’m completely hooked on Peter and Beverley and Nightingale and Lesley and all the rest ❤️

Excellent

A very engaging story and beautiful narration.
The voice is absolutely perfect for this book.
