Northern Ireland, spring 1981. Hunger strikes, riots, power cuts, a homophobic serial killer with a penchant for opera, and a young woman’s suicide that may yet turn out to be murder: on the surface, the events are unconnected, but then things—and people—aren’t always what they seem. Detective Sergeant Duffy is the man tasked with trying to get to the bottom of it all. It’s no easy job—especially when it turns out that one of the victims was involved in the IRA but was last seen discussing business with someone from the loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force.

Great Series, Great Characters Great Performance
Revisado: 08-01-13
Would you listen to The Cold, Cold Ground again? Why?
Yes I would and I must say that it is rare for me to do that with a crime novel. However this book is so good at capturing the Belfast of the 1980's and has such excellent characters that it draws you back in time and again.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Cold, Cold Ground?
I would have to say the explosive finale, I could feel the tension building and the author did not disappoint at all, wonderful
Which scene was your favorite?
When Gerry Adams himself enters the novel. The wonderful dialogue creates great tension.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes it was

When a troubled model falls to her death from a snow-covered Mayfair balcony, it is assumed that she has committed suicide. However, her brother has his doubts, and calls in private investigator Cormoran Strike to look into the case.Strike is a war veteran - wounded both physically and psychologically - and his life is in disarray. The case gives him a financial lifeline, but it comes at a personal cost: the more he delves into the young model's complex world, the darker things get - and the closer he gets to terrible danger...

Would you listen to The Cuckoo's Calling again? Why?
Wow I have finished the book and feel a little sad. The story kept me guessing right to the end. Robert Glenister told the story so well and made the characters come alive. I cannot wait for the next in in the series J K.( Robert) please hurry!!
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Yes it did I could not guess what had happened and loved the characters each giving their version of the other characters and events
Which character – as performed by Robert Glenister – was your favorite?
Strike himself!! He is such a well drawn character and the author has a wonderfuk creation here and can develop him as the series progresses.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Kept me on the edge of my seat if that is possible when you are walking
Any additional comments?
Next Book Please
