The discovery of a young woman’s body drifting down the Thames, her hair adorned with flowers and her legs wrapped in blue silk like a mermaid’s tail, presents Lord Jason Redmond and Inspector Daniel Haze with a puzzling new mystery. Who was she, why was she murdered, and what led the killer to leave her body displayed this way? Was it an act of love, meant to make the victim appear beautiful in death, or was there a more sinister reason?

As Redmond and Haze delve deeper into her life, they learn that the victim harbored shocking secrets and had crossed paths with a feared kingpin of London’s criminal underworld.

Will Redmond and Haze solve the murder before the killer strikes again?

the accent of the narrator is very different, to Wendy wolfson. I'm sorry to say the accents annoy me

good story

The story was good with a twist that kept me guessing. However, the narration was very distracting. At times there was very little difference between the ‘character voices’ and the narrator. I also found the narrator’s voice a little grating.

Disappointing.

Any change of actor takes a bit of getting used to. However I was soon engrossed with the story and by the end had completely forgotten the previous narrator. Great all round! Looking forward to the next book!

Hooked from the start!

why would you change the narrator. The previous narrator whom done the first 11 books was very good and I got used to knowing who each person was but they now don't sound right

I've really been enjoying the Redmond and Haze series and was heavily invested in the characters - until now! Alex Lee's attempt at Jason's American accent is absolutely awful! Wendy Wolfson, who previously narrated the series, was excellent. I can't carry on, I'll switch to reading the series. It's physically painful to listen to. Irina Shapiro, this narrator doesn't do Jason justice and, in doing so, ruins the entire audiobook experience - it's cringe worthy. I'm sorry, I don't go out of my way to leave bad reviews, but I'm sure there are others who agree with me.

Awful narrator!
