A Snowbound Oxford….
A joy on audio! The seventh in the Ryder and Loveday series. 1962, New Years Eve, a snowbound Oxford. When a man is found dead in a car, following an accident, in horrendous weather conditions it is assumed that either the crash or the weather is the cause of his death. Ryder and Loveday have different thoughts on the matter. Will they be able to continue their investigation and solve a potential crime or will a killer, perhaps, get away with the perfect crime? Well narrated tale and perfectly nuanced, with likeable and credible protagonists, wholly credible narrative and a colourful cast of supporting characters. A perfect addition to this excellent series and perhaps the best to date.

This was a joy to listen to on audio - set in Oxford in the depths of winter In 1962. A man is found dead in his car in the snow after a New Years celebration. The duo who are investigating are young police officer Trudy Loveday and coroner Clement who make an excellent team. This is an excellent British , nostalgic, golden age style crime novel with plenty of twists and turns to keep you entertained and it was a pleasure to listen and get drawn into! I will definitely be listening to more Faith Martin novels from now on! Five stars from me! Thank you to Netgalley and to Harper Collins for my gifted copy.
