Description

The headmistress of a Portsmouth school is found brutally murdered on an old structure in the middle of Langstone Harbour. Discovered with the victim is a note with the words ‘Have you forgotten ME?’ scrawled on it and a wad of money covered in honey, and wrapped in a five-pound note.

The victim is Jessica Langley, a steely, determined woman who made enemies on her path to success. But did any of them hate her enough to want her dead?

All the evidence points to a killer who wants to leave a very particular message.

Detective Andy Horton of Portsmouth CID is on the case and it is a race against time to piece together the clues and stop the killer. With the clock ticking and Superintendent Uckfield pressing for results, Horton is forced to make a decision that will put his life on the line.

This absolutely gripping detective mystery is perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Joy Ellis, and Rachel McLean.

This is the first novel that I have read by author Pauline Rowson, but won’t be my last! In this crime thriller, DI Andy Horton investigates the murder of the headmistress of the local school. While this is the second book in the Solent Murder Mysteries series, I had no problem reading it as a stand-alone book. The audiobook is well narrated and kept my attention. I recommend checking it out and I plan to read more of Rowson’s crime novels in the future!

Thank you @sagaegmont and @netgalley for allowing me to listen to this audiobook ahead of publication in exchange for my honest review.

Rowson writes good who-dun-its that are quick listens with lots of interesting characters. Keeps you guessing until the very end with the character tie-ins.
