Summary

From the number one international best-selling author of Holy Island.

Are you afraid of the dark?

After his climactic battle with notorious serial killer The Hacker, DCI Ryan is spending the summer with his fiancée within the grounds of Cragside, a spectacular Bavarian-style mansion surrounded by acres of woodland.

When they are invited to attend the staff summer party - a Victorian murder mystery evening - it's all a joke until the lights go out and an elderly man is found dead. It looks like an unfortunate accident but, as the dead man's life begins to unfold, Ryan and his team of detectives realise that all is not as it appears.

When a second body is found, terror grips the close-knit community, and Ryan must uncover the killer who walks among them before they strike again....

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

Enjoyable story.

I initially struggled with the narration but only because I had read the previous books and Keebles' voice was very different to the one I had imagined; I quickly got over that because the narration was actually faultless. His voice is relaxing without being somniferous.

The story was enjoyable but didn't quite reach top notch - it isn't one I'll remember once I've read/listened to a couple of other books.

Cragside.

Should have listened to the previous titles to get to know the characters as I could not seem to get into this book. Otherwise OK.
