À propos de cet audio

You can’t stay dead forever....

A group of high school students gather on the Isle of Skye’s remote Coral Beach for a hedonistic night of dancing, drugs, and alcohol to celebrate the passing of their finals. The new millennium is on the horizon and the future beckons, promising new hope and a fresh wind of optimism. In the coming days, many will leave the island for work or to study on the mainland, whereas others will remain on Skye and forge a more traditional path, much as their families have done for centuries before them. That is...all but one....

D.I. Duncan McAdam is dispatched home to the Misty Isle. A body has been found buried in a remote location on the Waternish peninsula. Well-preserved in the peat, Isla Matheson—missing for the better part of two decades—is revealed to a shocked island community. A teenage runaway is dead...and no one is talking.

Joining a small team of detectives, Duncan is tasked with revisiting those who knew Isla, those who cared for her...and those with the potential to kill her. In a remote community well-used to settling scores among themselves, will they trust one of their own when he asks questions or will they persevere with the façade of ignorance?

As he uncovers the island’s long-held secrets, Duncan must face his own demons. Old wounds he thought long healed have opened and this time, he cannot hide from them, he cannot run, and he won’t like the answers he is given. Skye is a place of mystery with a landscape of rugged beauty, but one that Duncan feels should exist only in his memories...or perhaps his worst nightmares.

A Long Time Dead is the first in a new series of crime thrillers from the multi-million best-selling crime writer, J M Dalgliesh, the author of the Hidden Norfolk and Dark Yorkshire books.

Really enjoyed this book. Kept me interested and guessing! As always Angus King was excellent. Well worth the listen. Can’t wait for the next one Mr. Dalgliesh.

New series YAY

Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.

There was a good story-line, close to that of Stuart McBride and J D Kirk series which I have read twice.

I chose this book because Angus King is the narrator and it’s the kind of story I enjoy.

As usual Angus King brings the characters to life and draws the reader in with his rich and evocative narration. Unsurpassed.

I enjoyed the storyline as well as the setting. Dalgleish paints a vivid word picture of the ambience of the isles. I can smell the tangle, hear the gulls and feel the cold, damp, raw air off the ocean. This story kept me guessing till the end. I am just off to start the next. While I enjoy J. D. Kirk books, I must say that I relate more to Dalgleish’s characters than to the very rough edges of some of Kirk’s.
Excellent read.

Intriguing storyline and excellent narration

I’ll be honest - I was attracted to this book due to the narrator. Amazing. I was happy to discover this author as I really enjoyed the book. Enough intrigue to keep me wanting to get back to listening asap. The bonus is there’s a second book that I can now follow up with in this series.

A Good Listen
