À propos de cet audio
Meet the Skelfs: well-known Edinburgh family, proprietors of a long-established funeral-home business, and private investigators....
When patriarch Jim dies, it's left to his wife Dorothy, daughter Jenny and granddaughter Hannah to take charge of both businesses, kicking off an unexpected series of events. Dorothy discovers mysterious payments to another woman, suggesting that Jim wasn't the husband she thought he was.
Hannah's best friend Mel has vanished from university, and the simple adultery case that Jenny takes on leads to something far darker than any of them could have imagined. As the women struggle to come to terms with their grief, and the demands of the business threaten to overwhelm them, secrets from the past emerge, which change everything....

disappointing
Yeah, I didn't like this near as much as I'd hoped to. First, I listened to it. The narration was pretty good, with the exception of Dorothy. Hoo boy, it was bad, which was extra unfortunate because Dorothy was teeth-grindingly annoying. Literally. I found myself grinding my teeth whenever she turned up. (Jenny, though, I don't know, she wasn't quite as bad as her mother, but she was pretty frustrating, too. Yeah, we are supposed to sympathize and identify, but I couldn't. So many bad decisions. Adultery is not cool. But the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, I guess.) It's like they get progressively less awful generationally- Hannah was almost ok! And then there are the men. Cardboard villains, all.
I can't really dig a story where everyone sucks.
The story was kind of thin, and the set up had the potential to be really fun and interesting, but it didn't really live up to it. It was neither suspenseful nor darkly comic, just kind of... cozy with a heavy dash of Me Too.
