A Lonely Death Audiobook

" I love these books. Charles Todd keeps me guessing every time. And each character is so individual. Sometimes I think the authors and I know the same people (not the murderer of course) and are putting them in the story. I feel this plot is the darkest in the series; well, perhaps not as dark as Wings of Fire, but a close second. Is it my imagination or is Hamish getting quieter? "

" For some reason I had a hard time getting into this story. "

" favorite mystery series! "

" Charles Todd delivers a terrific mystery. I am learning more and more about the underpinnings of British investigations and the British countryside descriptions are to be admired. "

" A multi-layered story of justice and injustice, with Ian caught up in two cases that weave through his personal hopes and vulnerabilities. Perhaps my favorite in the series so far... "

" A very open-and-shut case, with just enough red herrings to make it interesting. Of course, that could be the hindsight speaking. "

" Can't believe it took me so long to discover the Ian Rutledge series. I've really enjoyed them, so far. Now I'm going back and reading earlier ones. "

" I've always liked the Todd books but found the last couple to be slower reading-I had to struggle a bit to get through this one. "

" I love the Ian Rutledge books and this is no exception. Not quite as compelling as The Red Door, but still wonderful. "

" Solid enough mystery set within the milieu of post WWI soldiers and a string of murders that stem not from PTSD, which is a constant touchstone in the story, but rather childhood trauma. "

" This is a wonderful book! I really liked the mystery and the characters. And the writing is terrific. This is the most recent of a series about Inspector Ian Rutledge and I will certainly read more of these books. Highly recommended without age reservations. "

" The murders of several ex-soldiers sends Inspector Ian Rutledge, himself a WWI vet, into a crisis. This book and the previous one in the series are some of the best mysteries I've read. "

" Doesn't have the depth of Furst's pre-WWII novels but absorbing nonetheless. "

" This is a wonderful book! I really liked the mystery and the characters. And the writing is terrific. This is the most recent of a series about Inspector Ian Rutledge and I will certainly read more of these books. Highly recommended without age reservations. "

" This is a consistently good series. I enjoyed the Hastings coast setting; the main story and characters were good. I thought the "side story" though was unnecessary and distracting. Not the best of series but still very enjoyable. "

" I've only recently discovered Charles Todd. This is an entry in a series, and I plan to check out the earlier books! Of course it has some convenient explanations to tie the plot threads up, but it kept me interested until the end. I'm amazed that Charles Todd is a mother and son combo. "

" Charles Todd delivers a terrific mystery. I am learning more and more about the underpinnings of British investigations and the British countryside descriptions are to be admired. "

" I wonder what would happen if Rutledge actually listened a little bit better to the folks in front of him rather than the crazy voice in his head. Maybe he wouldn't spend so much time dithering around. That said, this one moved a bit faster and had a bit of urgency to it. "

" Another great Ian Rutledge mystery. Great pace, great evocation of the period (post WWI) and a great who-dunnit! "

" Decent police mystery set in 1920's England with a Scotland Yard inspector as the protagonist. I guess I will need to look for others in the series (which means it was successful). "

" These books are just starting to feel a little too formulaic and Rutledge just too distant. How about we have a book from Hamish's perspective? "
