Summary

Isobel Swan, a sixth form student, has been murdered. First, her ring finger is severed, then her throat is cut.

With the investigation going nowhere fast, Detective Inspector Nick Dixon is sent undercover as a trainee teacher into Isobel’s boarding school.

But to find the killer, he must first confront his inner demons and lay to rest the ghosts lurking in his own past. If he can…

As Dixon digs deeper, the stakes have never been higher and a murder has never felt so personal.

Swansong is the fourth novel in Damien Boyd’s highly addictive crime series.

A great police procedural

I'm loving the series (and the narration!), working my way backwards from No.8 since the books were re-recorded by the excellent Mr.Mattacks.
I just hope there'll be some kind of deal on the earlier three books which are much shorter!

Never a dull moment!

I'm enjoying this series. Some stories are better than others and this is one of them. My only complaint is that there are too many characters which gets a bit confusing. The narrator is Simon Mattock who is an experienced actor and does a great job doing all the different voices and accents - he's one of the best in the business and really moves the story along to a fast paced conclusion.

Another Brilliant Story in The DI Nick Dixon Crime Series

Damien Boyd has excelled himself with this latest story.

The story has lots of twists and turns and you are kept waiting until the end to find out who the murderer is.

As with the other audiobooks in the series Simon Mattacks provides excellent narration.

I can’t wait to listen to the next audiobook in the series.
