Murder in the Dark

De: Betsy Reaveley

Narrado por: John Hopkins

Without a motive, how do you identify the killer?

Imagine a quaint little bookshop. Outside, the snow is falling. Inside, the shelves are stacked with books by authors waiting to be discovered. What could be better?

When Tilly Edgely lands a position working at Ashton’s bookshop in Cambridge, she thinks she’s found her perfect job. But one winter’s morning, when she arrives to open up, she discovers the body of her boss suspended from the ceiling, hanging by a rope around his neck.

DCI Barrett and DI Palmer are called to the scene and quickly find themselves searching for a twisted killer whose identity and motive are nearly impossible to trace.

But just when they think they have the murderer in their sights, another body shows up throwing the case wide open....

Who is behind the killings and why?

The police have their work cut out and the key to unlocking the gruesome mystery might be found right under their nose.

But one thing is for certain, this killer will leave you hanging....

Betsy Reavley is the international best-selling author of multiple thrillers, including The Optician's Wife and Frailty. Murder in the Dark is the follow-on to Murder at the Book Club, though can equally be enjoyed as a stand-alone. It's a gripping mystery thriller which will appeal to fans of authors like Joy Ellis, Faith Martin and LJ Ross.

Murder in the Dark

What a book! Loved everything about it, such an unexpected ending! The characters were so well displayed. Will definitely want to read more of this author. The narration was very good.

From the first paragraph, I knew

I picked this up because of tje narrator. But the first paragraph, the way it is phrased, how much it tells in such few words, convinced me i was going to thoroughly this story. It didn't disappoint.

very nice mystery

a story about odd killings. well worth my time. I hate being forced to leave reviews.

Dark

If you like serial killer mysteries this might be right up your alley. The performance by John Hopkins was wonderful. The characters were two Dimensional. But take my review with a grain of salt it was just too noir for me.

Intriguing mystery, wish characters were more compelling

The murder in this sorry turned out to be interesting, but the characters are hard to care about. There are a lot of them, and there really isn’t anything about any one of the characters that makes you want to care about or root for them
