Pretty average
Sadly I didn’t really care enough about who killed whom in this book. Without the psychological device it would have been very bog standard.

A disappointment
This is one of Charles Todd’s earliest Inspector Rutledge novels but I found it disappointing compared to his later books.
The story is convoluted and confusing where nothing much happens for much of the time, leaving it with a “gossipy impression.
Reader isn’t up to the standard of Simon Prebble’s narration of the later books.

Kind of enjoyable
Like: relevance of plot - war injuries in today’s war torn world and poor soldiers returning with PTSD.
Dislike: narration speed: only bearable if you crank it up to 1.25 of normal delivery: otherwise you end up falling asleep! It’s lacking!
I love reading entire series, normally, but if next plot still as wearing as this one I’ll have to call it a day, sadly.
Currently: more disappointed than enchanted. At times plot and descriptive narrative entices again, so it varies, overall. Main point: I’ll give it at least one more shot.
Disappointed also that ‘hero’ so firmly in victim (heroic victim) role, but love the dialogue between him and Hamish!

Enjoyable book ruined by narrator
This series of gentle mysteries is enjoyable but the narration ruined this one. Terrible accents bearing no relation to the Dorset way of speaking, unnecessary pauses and emphasis all combine to spoil the book. Simon Prebble is much better.
