About this listen

One song for the dying... sung by the dead....

When the body of a young woman is discovered at the home she shared with her disabled daughter, DI Tom Janssen and his team must investigate the circumstances surrounding her death.

The woman was a single mother, well regarded, and popular among the group she frequented, but she had a checkered past...a life she kept secret from those around her...a life that may, ultimately, have led to her death. Friends, past lovers, and confidants offer conflicting descriptions of the deceased...did anyone know her at all?

The team realize the daughter is missing and, away from her medication, the little girl's life hangs in the balance. Unless the team can solve a seemingly calculated murder, an innocent life will be lost....

Set within the mysterious beauty of coastal Norfolk, this fast-paced British detective novel is a dark murder mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end when the final shocking twist is revealed.

The Raven Song is the latest novel in the Hidden Norfolk series of thrillers from the million-copy best-selling British crime writer, JM Dalgliesh, the author of the Dark Yorkshire books. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, JD Kirk, Angela Marsons, Simon McCleave, and Damien Boyd.

Superb story

Difficult subject matter but a really well narrated story. Hating Eric’s wife now who is coming across as mean. Otherwise characters have developed well.

Challenging but good

The story was OK but I guessed the outcome pretty early on, not all the exact details, but in general. It didn’t really make sense why the hunt went on for so long and the relatives to the initial victim were so obtuse. However, not bad just not the best, again saved by a great narrator.

OK but the ending was kind of obvious about 20% in.

Beautifully written and engaging. Such a sad tale. The ending is one that makes you emotional . Another episode in this series of brilliant books to listen to and think about.

This Hidden Norfolk series is superb and the narration is just SO good that when I reach the end of each book, I imagine the characters carrying on their lives until the next crime has occurred. As usual, I couldn’t stop listening. A tale of tragedy but as always, written brilliantly and empathy and at times, great humour for light relief.

Another great detective story with superb narration.
