About this listen

Set in the Cotswolds, this is the next instalment in the adventures of Inspector Hobbes, Mrs Goodfellow, and Dregs, as narrated by the still disaster-prone Andy Caplet. It is a rip roaring, funny, and moving tale of Andy's infatuation with a dangerously beautiful woman, starting off during investigations into sheep deaths and the mysterious disappearance of pheasants.

These incidents appear to be connected to a rash of big cat sightings, and something horrible seems to be lurking in the woods. Is Andy cursed to be always unsuccessful in love, or is the curse something much darker, something that will arouse his primeval terrors?

Not as interesting as the first book.

I really enjoyed this audiobook. Tim Campbell is an excellent narrator and I really enjoy his depictions of the characters. I didn't find this one as interesting as the first book, and found it fairly predictable and I was sure of the who/what/when/where of the plot fairly early on. Andy is still extremely clumsy and Hobbes is still as enigmatic as ever.

I don't know if In would have enjoyed the print version as much but this really did keep me entertained during my daily commute and I did experience several laugh out loud moments as well as some extreme secondhand embarrassment on behalf of Andy. The author has played around with the lore of supernatural beings not being how we imagined them and I hope he runs with it more in future installments.
