About this listen

**Shortlisted for the 2025 CWA Whodunnit Dagger**

'Can you come round?' Dad says tremulously.
'Of course. Are you OK? Is it Mum?'
'No!' He almost shouts it. 'Just come quickly. The garden...the...body... we need you, Penny.'
For women of Penny's generation, being on hand for elderly parents is just part of life. But for Penny, things have become a little more serious...

When she receives a frantic phone call from her parents one night, with express instructions NOT to call the police, Penny rushes over at once. But they haven't had a fall. They haven't forgotten their computer passwords. They've killed someone. And his body is lying in the garden, right next to the rose bushes.
Everyone is capable of murder. They just need to meet the right person.

Clever plot, thought it was going one way, often thought they would be found out but it just kept moving along, with Penny and her parents managing to keep the wool pulled over people's eyes.
Loved the twists as it reached it's conclusion.

Another great novel by Laura Marshall. I have loved all of her previous ones and this one is just as riveting. You really get a sense of the characters relationships with each other and feel like you could know them or someone like them and you are rooting for them even though you know they have done something wrong.

A captivating listen

I liked this one of Laura Marshall’s. Thought the delivery by the voice actor was great too. Believable characters despite an almost unbelievable storyline. I enjoyed it because it somehow made me smile despite the macabre nature!

Good story!

This is my 2nd title by this author. She truly is fantastic. Just purchased another 3 titles by her. The narrator was great and the story was so engaging. I was hooked from the first chapter. Listened in 36 hours on and off. Full stars for this and I’m sorry it’s come to an end. Brilliant. You must listen if you are a fan!

Fantastic audiobook!!! Really was good. Couldn’t stop listening.5 full stars *****

A cleverly plotted story with believable & down to earth characters whose experiences are easy to relate to. Twists make it an exciting listen.

Great Story!

Not the crime thriller I was expecting, more Midsomer Murders. Whilst I started off enjoying the plot, I quickly became frustrated by the main character, Penny and her lack of intuition ; Why not use your phone to record incidents with Cooper? Why not set up cameras in the house? If you knew your dodgy tenant had stolen keys from your house, wouldn’t you change your locks?
Accents a bit stereotypical…Posh Penny and her parents, compared to the more regional spoken, stoned, ungrateful son?
Unbelievable what Penny and her parents got away with. Kept thinking the female detective would find incriminating evidence.
Overall, not the thriller I was hoping for….more a lighthearted holiday read. Too frustrating at points to recommend to fans of the thriller genre.
