Description

In With No One as Witness, her 13th novel, Elizabeth George has crafted an intricate and absorbing story sure to enthrall her listeners. Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley, along with his longtime partner, the fiery Barbara Havers, and newly promoted Detective Sergeant Winston Nkata, is back and on the hunt for a sinister killer.  

When an adolescent boy's nude body is found mutilated and artfully arranged on the top of a tomb, it takes no large leap for the police to recognize this as the work of a serial killer. This is the fourth victim in three months, but the first to be white.

Hoping to avoid charges of institutionalized racism in its failure to pursue the earlier crimes to their conclusion, New Scotland Yard hands the case over to Lynley and his colleagues. The killer is a psychopath who does not intend to be stopped. Worse, a devastating tragedy within the police ranks causes them to fumble in their pursuit of him.

With a surprise ending that will shock listeners to the core, With No One as Witness is full of the mesmerizing action and psychological intrigue that are the hallmarks of Elizabeth George's work and continue to prove that she is "a master of the English mystery" (New York Times).

Ce que les critiques en disent

"This is a riveting installment in a superb series - far more than just plain good." (Booklist)

"Crime fans will find plenty of forensic minutiae and details of police bureaucracy and politics, but it's characterization at which George really excels.... This is an outstanding and explosive addition to a popular series." (Publishers Weekly

Boring book

I couldn’t get through this book. There’s a weird musical part that happens at the beginning of every chapter, it’s hard to follow and I can’t stand the narrator’s voice. I wouldn’t recommend it

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING!

I can't find one good thing to say about this audiobook.
The fact that this book is abridged makes it , to say least difficult to follow, and darn right confusing.
The narration is absolutely terrible. Inspector Lynley sounds as though he's 80, and frequently it's difficult to tell one male charater from another.
Another huge complaint ; the horrendous musical score that assaulted one from nowhere!
What in Gods name is that in aid of, other than to make one jump out off ones skin and go deaf at the same time, especially if one is wearing headphones!
I had great difficulty making it even a third of a way through this and would return it if able.
I've learned one thing from this horrible experience......stop wasting money on audiobooks and go back to reading them

Scary and disturbing

I found the performance of this story rather too disturbing to read very much at a time. The performers and the music are too real and frightening!
