Summary
No Simple Death is a murder mystery with a touch of romance, set in the Dublin suburbs. It will appeal to fans of authors such as Peter James, LJ Ross and Ruth Rendall.
When Detective Mike West is called to investigate a murder in a Dublin graveyard, suspicion immediately falls on a local woman, Edel Johnson, whose husband disappeared some months before. But then she disappears. Evidence leads West to a small village in Cornwall, but when he arrives, he finds Edel has got there before him. Her explanation seems to make sense, but as West begins to think his suspicions of her are unfounded, she disappears again.
Is she guilty? West, fighting an unsuitable attraction, doesn't want to believe it. But the case against her is growing. Back in Dublin, his team uncover evidence of blackmail and illegal drugs involving Edel’s husband. When another man is murdered, she, once again, comes under suspicion.

An easy to listen to story
I enjoyed this u challenging plot. I certainly have more knowledge of S. Ireland. The only negative for me was the awful monotonous uninterested tone of the Narrator and his painful accents.
It's a thought that I have to suffer his drone for the rest of the series.

Good pace
A good crime novel, my only complaint is the distinct lack of female characters. Other than the victim (who in typical fashion makes a number of stupid choices and seems all too naive for an adult), the only others are secretaries and wives who get one mention. no women in the garda, bariton industries, the forensics team, or anywhere else.

Something wrong with the police procedures!
This was free, otherwise I would have returned it. As it was I skipped through it, I don’t think the author has a good grasp of police procedures and/or the police in Ireland are incompetent! Do they really not issue search warrants at weekends? So many holes in the story. I did read most of the first one in the series - it lost me when the bad guy was called Cyril Pratt! I do wonder how the books actually get published without an editor pointing out the inconsistencies. The narrator was OK but did leave gaps between sentences.

Story
It was quite a complicated story but very well read and easy to follow. This was a really good read and now I will check out the author so that I can read more of her books.

Great Story
I began to listen unsure of my expectations of the Author, Story and Narrator but I needn't have been unsure at all; I really enjoyed this book, I couldn't stop listening.
