About this listen

No Simple Death is a murder mystery with a touch of romance, set in the Dublin suburbs. It will appeal to fans of authors such as Peter James, LJ Ross and Ruth Rendall.

When Detective Mike West is called to investigate a murder in a Dublin graveyard, suspicion immediately falls on a local woman, Edel Johnson, whose husband disappeared some months before. But then she disappears. Evidence leads West to a small village in Cornwall, but when he arrives, he finds Edel has got there before him. Her explanation seems to make sense, but as West begins to think his suspicions of her are unfounded, she disappears again.

Is she guilty? West, fighting an unsuitable attraction, doesn't want to believe it. But the case against her is growing. Back in Dublin, his team uncover evidence of blackmail and illegal drugs involving Edel’s husband. When another man is murdered, she, once again, comes under suspicion.

Like a bad movie!

The author throws out bits and pieces to keep the reader’s interest and build suspense, but nothing comes of it. Like a bad movie, this book feels like it was thought up scene by scene. The narrator is the only positive, but his talents seem wasted on this endeavour….

Good narration could not save this novel

Started out well but the female character written in such a poor way I became increasingly irritated with the direction of the story.
