In high summer, darkness descends on Elgar's England.

Shadowed by the Malvern Hills, the village of Wychehill is no rural paradise but an uneasy mix of embittered farmers, escapees from the city, and a pub with a reputation for drug dealing. Called in to investigate an unsettling series of road accidents, Merrily Watkins stumbles into a barbed tangle of alienation, murder...and the fatal pursuit of an archaic secret.

This is a 5 hour rendition of a 320 page book...and a switch out of narrators that ruins the continuity. I love all of these books but the narration here is so out of character from the rest it is impossible to enjoy. Ms. Maisey is no doubt a fine reader for other materials but not suited to this series.
