About this listen
Northamptonshire, 1810: As a new canal network snakes across the landscape, a vicious mob stakes its claim to the county. Every local constable is out on the hunt for the ruthless Panther Gang. When an elderly man is robbed and murdered in sleepy Middleton, the beleaguered magistrates send for help from London's Bow Street Police Office.
Detective Stephen Lavender and Constable Ned Woods soon discover there's more to William Sculthorpe's demise than meets the eye. Mystery surrounds the old man and his family, and the stench of revenge hangs heavy in the air. Are the Panther Gang really responsible or is something more sinister afoot? As Lavender delves further into long-hidden secrets, Woods has demons of his own to contend with: ghosts from his past that stalk him through the investigation.
Uncovering decades of simmering hatred and deceit, Lavender and Woods must use all their wit and cunning to solve this evil crime.

Enjoyable old fashioned detective story
This is the fourth novel in the series I've listened to and, like the others, found it an intriguing and well-plotted story. Well-rounded characters, especially Inspector Lavender and his side-kick Ned Woods. The postscript to the book tells how the story has some basis in fact, but has been embellished by the author to make the outcome neater.
The narrator is very good.

The Sculthorpe Murder
I have really enjoyed this book. The narrator was brilliant. The plot was very well worked. I highly recommend this book and book 1 and 2 that went before. A really lovely read. I am looking forward to book 4 in the series.

another enjoyable read
2nd book I have read from this author, well researched, and written, difficult to put down, once you get sucked into the storyline.
