Summary
The sudden appearance of a sinister black hole in the English countryside leads to a baffling murder investigation for Ishmael Jones.
"The past is England's dreaming, and not all of it sleeps soundly...."
Ishmael Jones and his partner Penny have been despatched to assist a group of scientists who are investigating a mysterious black hole which has appeared on a Somerset hillside. Could it really be a doorway to another dimension, an opening into another world?
When one of the scientists disappears into the hole - with fatal consequences - Ishmael must prove whether it was an accident - or murder. But with no clues, no witnesses, and no apparent motive, he has little to go on. Is there an alien predator at large, or is an all-too-human killer responsible? Only one thing is certain: if Ishmael does not uncover the truth in time, more deaths will follow.

Wonderful series
So happy to have discovered Ishmael Jones. Great characters and superb narration. Honestly the author can’t write these fast enough. I could easily devour one of these every month.

Okay, but not a favourite
It goes without saying that Gildart Jackson did his normal excellent narration and brought things to life admirably. Each character had their own voice and he performed them really well, however for some reason I couldn’t really get into this book.
There were things that felt too contrived and I found myself wanting to finish this one and move on to the next. It just felt like there were things that needed a more detailed description and extra background explanation; it was a little too far-fetched, and the reasoning behind character behaviour was tenuous.
So far, I have been enjoying this series very much. It’s excellent escapism and Gildart Jackson is good to listen to, this is just the weaker one of the series so far.
