About this listen

Meredith and Hodge are stranded up a mountain with two dead bodies and a murderer on the loose, Christmas is put on hold until they can catch the killer.

John Meredith has been coerced into joining a group of friends, in a castle on top of a mountain, for the Christmas holiday. His irritation at being dragged away from home soon dissipates, as he relaxes in the picturesque surroundings, enjoying the company of good friends. Even the sudden snowstorm is accepted without complaint; it will be a white Christmas. But then Patsy Hodge discovers a dead body in the salt box.

The murderer must be a member of the family who own the castle or one of the staff. No one can get into the castle or leave until they discover who that is.

The shock discovery of a second body reveals that either someone has keys to the castle, or an intruder is one step ahead of them. A trap is set to catch the killer before anyone else is murdered, but will it succeed?

Quite by Chance is a gripping murder mystery in MK Turner's popular Meredith & Hodge detective series.

So Enjoyed

All the usual characters, but in a different setting. It's Christmas and Meredith is "on holiday" but as might be expected, it doesn't quite go to plan! If I had to pick a favourite in the series, it would be this one. Funny, emotional, page turning and I didn't guess "who did it"!!

M K Turner's fantastic writing again creates realistic characters that Lee Beddow brings to life expertly. My favourite character 'Peggy' is with Meredith and Hodge alongside all the other great characters, trapped in a castle together for Christmas. What could go wrong. Great writing keeps you gripped in this secluded environment.

My favourite book in the series so far.

Having enjoyed every one of the series so far I found this one to be a little different, being set all in one place and as meredith himself said "very Agatha Christie".

I admit I had my doubts but they proved to be wrong as this story proves you can have a single setting with limited characters produce a thrilling tale. Meredith is on top form as always and all the usual cast are with him. The "suspects" were entertaining and well written, keeping us guessing until the end.

Peggy & Loopy Linda really shine in this one and Trump shows a more dominant side at times.

Lee Beddow gives a stellar performance as narrator, adding several new voices to his repetoire and nailing them perfectly.

I've now got my wife hooked on this series too. Can't wait for the next one.

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the authorat my request and am voluntarily writing an honest and unbiased review.

I enjoyed this audiobook though with some reservations I didn’t think it was as good as others in the series. I found some of the relationships rather difficult to work out.

Enjoyable
