About this listen

In the south of France, where hatred simmers in the heat, a man seemingly admired, and certainly feared, drops dead at a dinner party. All of the guests fall under suspicion, including Welsh-Canadian professor Cait Morgan. A criminologist who specializes in profiling victims, Cait sets out to solve the murder - and clear her name. Add to this the disappearance of an ancient Celtic gold collar said to be cursed and there you have the ingredients for a Nicoise salad of death, secrets, and lies.

Will Cait find the killer before she too falls victim to a murderer driven by a surprising and disturbing motive?The Corpse with the Silver Tongue is the first in the Cait Morgan mystery series, a classic whodunit series featuring the eccentric Professor Cait Morgan.

What a great story! Cait’s hilarious inner monologue really brings the character to life, particularly as the author is narrating it herself. Can’t wait to hear the next adventure.

A thriller with a wicked sense of humour

It took me a little while to get used to the narration on this. It is very low-key compared to some audio books, but after a short while I got used to it.
It was like having a book read to you. A much more intimate style of narration. It drew me in.

There were not too many characters. That made the plot much easier for me to follow!

The plot was well thought out. There were hints along the way as to who the villains were but no so obvious that I guessed the whole plot.

I had a lot of empathy for the main character and enjoyed her witty observations.

Recommended as a great yarn.

Engaging

I read through the reviews and nearly didn't get this audio book. I decided as it was free I'd give it a go. After some of the very critical comments about the author reading her story, I wasn't expecting a beautiful soft Welsh voice. Far better than some of the actors I have listened to in the past. yep I'll be listening to the next in the series. It's not a gripping David Baldacci but it was a very pleasant listen while cleaning the house etc.

Good story, good narration.

Took time to get engaged, story line a bit chaotic.. could be done better. To say that, I will listen to the second book too. (Wouldn’t pay for it)

Not sure about this one but will listen to the next
