About this listen

Detective Alan Auhl does things his own way - and gets results. He works cold cases now. Like the death of John Elphick - his daughters are still convinced he was murdered, the coroner not so sure. Or the skeleton that’s just been found under a concrete slab. Or the doctor who killed two wives and a girlfriend and left no evidence at all....

I enjoy all Disher’s books and this didn’t disappoint! Shame it’s a standalone as I’d like more with same character

Good story about Australian cold case copper, but with a couple of interesting twists.
I enjoyed both the story and the narrator. Not my first Garry Disher book and it won’t be the last.

Police procedural with a difference

Garry Disher knows how to write a compelling crime story populated by warm-blooded characters you can really believe in. This is no exception. I raced through it! The narration was ok - a bit lacklustre. But not everyone can be Steve Shanahan or Lockie Chapman.

Cracking story, ok narration

As always, Disher fleshes interesting characters with motivations and challenges outside the main plot lines. This is the strength of the book.
There were 3 investigation plot lines running. I thought the ending on a couple was too convenient.
The main character was very interesting but by the end I lacked empathy with him and can see why this might not translate in to further stories involving him.
Unlike some others I found the narration fine.

Great new detective character

Good story plenty of different aspects to it. Just slightly spoilt by the performance delivery.

Good story

Loved this book, the main character is so very different from the usual detective, and he makes the book all the more interesting.
Disappointed it's a one off, would really love to hear more. One to listen to again.

Brilliant

Essentially listening for anyone who has to deal with or has been accused of parental alienation or simply not believed about the truth when people in positions of authority silence the truth - a great listen

Fascinating-

Enjoyable tale in interesting backdrop. Could spend more time in the company of the main character. Really well read by well chosen narrator. Triciax

Very Satisfying Ending

Great ending!
