About this listen

Following a string of successful performances along the west coast, the Moscardi Circus is travelling by train to Hexham on the Newcastle to Carlisle Railway for their next show. Yet a collision on the track causes pandemonium.

When the headless body of a woman is discovered in nearby woodland, Inspector Colbeck is desperate to lend assistance, however a reluctant Superintendent Tallis forbids him from doing so. With the performers pointing fingers at both the competition and each other, the interference of locals concerned about the show's morality, and a planned takeover bid of the NCR, Colbeck has his work cut out trying to untangle the thread of events.

I’ve already read this book but the audible was employed after an accident. It’s been indispensable as I’ve rested and tried to sleep. With intricate plot lines the stories unfold with characters coming to life in an alternative voice to the one in my head as I read. Most enjoyable and I’m sure I will listen to the story again …. And some others too. Thank you.

A great way to while away sleepless hours.

Brilliant

Confusing to listen to. The narrator is not up to the standard of previous narrators (Sam Dastor), Voices get confused; London detectives have a North Eastern accent.

Poor compared with previous narrator

I have enjoyed many of this series, by Marston, but this one had so much repetition. This was not only repeating past stories but there was so much repetition of statements already mentioned in the story ,

Too much repetition
