Absorbing.

One of the best series I have come across - compelling stories and strong characters make for books that you just can't leave alone!
I'm ready to download my next one. I dread the feeling when I come to the last chapter of the last book though!

Inspector Mclean on the case again

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, great story, and if you are intersted in Edinburgh and like the Scottish accent especially

What did you like best about this story?

The cleverness of the killer to stage the deaths they way he did, and the tenacity of Tony McLean to get to the bottom of it.

Have you listened to any of Ian Hanmore’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Yes, others in the Inspector McLean series, and just as good as the others

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes, feeling of revulsion in response to the murders, certainly did not make me want to laugh or cry.

True genius

A fantastic book, full of twists and turns. Couldn't put it down. A must for all crime book fans. A great performance by the narrator who really brings detective McLean to life. Can't wait to read the next in the series.

dark and compelling listening

I love all of James Oswald's books, I've read them all so I'm now on the Audible versions. Ian brings the story to life in a way that just reading it doesn't. highly recommended series!!

A Good Yarn

Enjoyed meeting this detective again. characters are becoming more real as you learn more about them. Good long-term background story as new plots arrive.

Suicide or Murder?

The Hangman's Song is a very good listen, and this author is new to me and this is his 3rd book.
Suicides are happening sad but happens, but Inspector McLean is not convinced on the 1st one, there was a suicide note but he felt it was a strangely written note.
Lo and behold another suicide and another written note then another, it's the notes that are giving Inspector McLean bother they don't seem to make sense, and no forensics so to speak, they are very convincing suicides, and he feels he must get to the bottom of.
Strong characters and a strong story I will certainly look out for this author again, well worth a read or listen.
Ian Hanmore did an excellent job of narrating.

hangmans song book 3 by james oswald

Would you consider the audio edition of The Hangman's Song to be better than the print version?

yes because you can hear it anywhere
as books are hard to read when you are walking

What other book might you compare The Hangman's Song to, and why?

i have just bought the rest of the 6 ones on audible

Which scene did you most enjoy?

when he nearly killed himself as people tried to talk to me and i turned up the story as it was very good and i needed to find out what happened next

Any additional comments?

best books to hear in years thank you
will look for more from James oswald
