Angel

The DCI Ryan Mysteries, Book 4

By: LJ Ross

Narrated by: Jonathan Keeble

He'll make you his angel, but first you have to die....

After a turbulent time, DCI Ryan's life is finally beginning to return to normal, and he's looking forward to spending an uneventful Easter bank holiday weekend with his fiancée. Then, on Good Friday morning, he is called out to a crime scene at one of the largest cemeteries in Newcastle. The body of a redheaded woman has been found buried in a shallow grave, and the killer has given her wings, like an angel. Soon another woman is found at a different cemetery, followed quickly by another. Panic spreads like wildfire as a new serial killer is born, and Ryan's band of detectives must work around the clock to unmask him before he can strike again. Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

It’s ok

I like the characters, though I too am a bit weary of hearing about the seemingly endless wondrous charms of our heroic DCI. Personally I prefer his rather more down to earth DS.

Storyline wise I think there are only so many times you can recycle a plot in which someone you love or one of your team is in mortal peril before it becomes old and so far every book in this series has used that ploy. I’ve already downloaded the next book so I’ll hear it out, but that might be the last one for me.

On a positive note the narration is very good and the accents convincing.

Very good

These books are definitely improving

This was a definite "can't put down" book. I'm glad The Circle is gone but now we have another religious oriented mystery. Ryan and all his team are pulled in a few directions as women are found murdered. Is there a connection? Are Denise and/or Anna targeted? A great story with one of the best narrators I've heard lately.

Why do I always think the narrator is saying Brian not Ryan 😄

Great story and very skilled narrator who manages multiple accents seamlessly. But it drives me crazy how often I think he is saying Brian not Ryan!!!

Magnificently read!

I enjoyed the writing and the voice of the narrator woh makes it come to life!

Fast moving

I’m getting tired of the authors always having to repeat the bad guys getting free and attacking the little women. Just write an interesting story which he had until it got stupid and now I’m annoyed and won’t continue the series
