Deception on His Mind

By: Elizabeth George

Narrated by: Donada Peters

Balford-le-Nez is a dying seatown on the coast of Essex. But when a member of the town's small but growing Asian community, is found dead on its beach, his neck broken, sleepy Balford-le-Nez ignites. Working solo, without her long-time partner Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley, Sergeant Barbara Havers must probe not only the mind of a murderer and a case very close to her own heart, but the terrible price people pay for deceiving others...and themselves.

always love Elizabeth George

Good mystery and enjoyed learning more of traditional Pakastani culture and the challenges for the next generations.

Engrossing read

I was captivated from page one on.
Unable to put down until early morning and then continued to listen until the end.
I need a nap because of my lack of sleep. A book that will ruin your sleep schedule.

Fantastic Listen

My first Elizabeth George novel but certainly not my last. Great twists and turns and plot twists. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.

Adventurous Sidetrip

Wasn't sure about an Elizabeth George without Inspector Lynley - but time spent with Barbara Havers entertains and enthralls.

Another good one!

fabulous performance. I love the friendship developing between Barbara Havers and Hadiya & her dad! not sure of proper spelling since I've only heard, not read, her name. LOL!
