Summary
A serial killer’s secret grave. Another murderer’s victims.
The case that broke Rob Marshall crashes back into his life.
Ten years ago, Marshall profiled a serial killer the press had dubbed the Shadow Man, who killed six young athletes at remote sites in cold blood, and he worked with Northumbria Police to catch the perpetrator. But the Shadow Man kept the burial locations of the final three bodies to himself. Tired of the passivity, Marshall quit profiling and joined the police.
Now a detective inspector in Police Scotland’s Borders Major Investigation Team, Marshall is summoned to HMP Frankland in County Durham, a.k.a. the Monster Mansion. The Shadow Man promises to show them where one body lies, allowing a family to finally grieve. But he will only show Marshall.
At a lonely woods on the banks of the Tweed, the Shadow Man leads them to where the body lies. But they find another three, freshly killed. Victims the Shadow Man couldn’t have murdered, with a vastly different MO. Is it a copycat? A collaborator? Or someone else entirely?
As Marshall and team scour the Borders and the North of England, desperately trying to identify the victims and track down the killer, it becomes clear someone else has been abducted and will suffer the same brutal fate. Can Marshall unpick the trail in time to save them?
Where the Bodies Lie is the second book in the DI Rob Marshall series, starring a haunted detective who masks his trauma with biting humor. Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart MacBride, JD Kirk, and LJ Ross.

A Captivating Scottish Thriller
If you are looking for a thrilling and captivating crime audiobook, then look no further. This is the second book in the DI Rob Marshall series, but it can be read as a standalone.
This book will keep you on the edge of your seat as you follow Marshall and his colleagues in their investigations. The author does a great job of creating realistic and complex characters that you will care about.
One of the highlights of this audiobook is the superb narration by Angus King, who brings the story and characters to life. He does an excellent job of conveying the emotions, accents, and tones of each character, making them distinct and believable.
“Where the Bodies Lie” is a must-read for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart MacBride, JD Kirk, and LJ Ross. It is a cracker of a read that will keep you hooked from start to finish. You won’t regret selecting this audiobook, but be warned: you might not be able to switch it off!.

This is actually the first book in the series
Brilliant narration by Angus King as always. This is the first book in the series which I realised after having listed to The Turning of Bones which is listed on here as the first book. Good story, looking forward to more in the series.

A good read
I would have given five stars but found this book a bit too gruesome compared to the author 's other books. Also lacked the humour that is in the previous books in the series, especially the prequel 'False start' which was a brilliant read .

Enjoyable
I am getting to know the characters a bit now. It got a bit confusing at times, perhaps it is just me.
One laugh out loud moment when the Geordie policeman pronounced Ponteland as Pont a land.
As anyone born within 100 miles of Newcastle knows it is Pon tea land .
Enjoyed it.

Appalling accents
Much as I think Angus King has the Jack Logan series off to a tee (despite the awful Irish accent), I cannot continue with this series, due entirely to his appalling and off-putting Geordie/North East accent/s. As bad as his Liverpool via Birmingham “scouse” accent, he must have done wonderful things in a previous life to get all the work he does. I regularly cringe when I see his name as narrator, unless the story is made up entirely of Scottish characters, but then what do I know? Maybe his regional Scottish accents sound equally as terrible to inhabitants of those regions? I’m happy for him, really, I’m sure he’s a lovely man, but Audible - please get accent assessors when casting 🙏🏼. Aa divvent knaa🤦🏼.
