Summary

Who’d break in and leave the house untouched? When Michael and Hilda return from holiday to find two police officers awaiting them, a chaotic series of events ensues. The police have had an anonymous tip-off about child pornography being stored on Michael‘s computer. It’s easy to prove his innocence, but who would do such a thing and why?

At the same time it becomes clear that someone was living in the cottage while they were away, and may still be returning. Soon, they decide to take action of their own, with devastating consequences...

Very Enjoyable

A good audio book, not too complicated to follow but a good story. Well told and lots of humour.

Quirky and fun

This is a bit different, written for amusement of the reader as much as for the literary content. A gentle, amusing tale. Generally narrator was good, but I agree with another reviewer regarding the female voice impressions - give it up, narrator, it is parody and sounds ridiculous outside of a Punch & Judy show. There must be better ways as other narrators don’t do this.

Light and easy listen

So entertaining once I got into the sway of the author’s style. Ten over ten

Nice little read

Nothing spectacular but enjoyable.
Easy to listen to and while away a couple of hours.
I could easily listen to the narrator with his soft Scottish lilt.

Silent Intruder

Decent storyline. Well narrated. Still waiting to be flummoxed by the big, unnecessary words I read about in one review. The only thing I would say is that it's not particularly in depth but the characters were good and I enjoyed the story. Give it a go.

Enjoyable

The author has a lovely way with words and a good vocabulary. Clearly read with changes if voice fir the different ‘players’. Not massively exciting but a good listen and I do recommend it.

easy listening

Not mind blowing but adequate for a short story. Some good humour and bantering between the characters and narrated well.
