Summary
A dangerous book. A hidden secret. A deadly betrayal.
The Oxford Literary Festival is in full swing, but Detective Inspector Bridget Hart isn't there to learn about books. Instead, she's been given the task of protecting Diane Gilbert, a controversial author who has received a death threat. Diane doesn't seem to think she needs Bridget's protection, but when the worst happens, Bridget's role switches to running a murder enquiry.
The only clues Bridget has to go on relate to Diane's new book which examines the murky world of international arms deals. Under pressure to identify the killer, Bridget finds herself drawn into the clandestine world of foreign governments and the British Security Service. She'll need all her wiles and the full cooperation of her team to follow the twisting trail of evidence to its logical conclusion.

Telling Tales
Another excellent yarn from M.S. Morris, with extensive knowledge of Oxford as the backdrop. As ever, Esther Wane's narration is spot on.

Good plot
Got a bit lost at the beginning with red herrings and hints at spooks but, once again, when the story got going it was engaging.

Story was an easy listen. Good plot. Always enjoy this series.
The Narrator is very good and you can easily identify which character is speaking.

Excellent Series
I enjoyed this Audible book mainly because the narrator was so good. The content was good as well with a good mix of characters. I would recommend this title and the whole series.

Good take of revenge murder
Lots of twists and turns in this tale of a strong woman who always gets her own way only to be murdered because of it.
My biggest criticism is the way the author portrayed the police especially the way senior officers talk to lower ranks, they never call them by their rank they use first names proper research would have found this out. As an ex police officer I would like to have seen this expressed properly

Ridiculous storyline
I have listened to a few books by this author and whilst not challenging find them well written. I also enjoy the main characters. However the reason behind the murder in this one was quite frankly ludicrous. I don't know if because nowadays books are expected to have a 'twist'. Personally I would have preferred a believable story - no ' twist' necessary. Good narration as always .
