Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
No.
I don't think I took Dalziel's character. I purchased this book after thoroughly enjoying The Woodcutter, and perhaps wasn't ready for something that reminded me of the TV program Heartbeat.The performance was excellent, but I feel like I've watched a play instead of having completed a book...
The jury is out on this series.... more evidence required....!
I would recommend The Woodcutter !!
What could Reginald Hill have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
not sure.
What does Colin Buchanan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Colin's accents are very good and his excellent narration brings the story to life.
Did An April Shroud inspire you to do anything?
Try another in the series - the reviews say they get better ! Maybe I need to get to know Pascoe....
Any additional comments?
Wanting to work through the series, but with Colin Buchanan as the narrator, I selected this book to be my first. Maybe I should have chose another....
