Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
An innovative librarian or bookseller might put this sophisticated mystery in the music section. Composer Edward Elgars life and music are the background for this most unusual story. Priest and Deliverance Consultant Merrily Watkins is called upon to investigate seemingly paranormal car accidents on a remote road. Emma Powell expertly presents a range of well-drawn characters and excels at a myriad of accents. Conversations are so realistic that listeners cannot help but be drawn into the ever increasing feeling of terror. Powell also captures Merrilys young daughters sincere emotion and re-creates the lore of local legend. Insatiable mystery fans will love this production.

Review
"Compassionate, original, and sharply contemporary. Rickman’s crime series is one of the best around."  —The Spectator


"First rate. A passionate, flawed, modern woman, every bit as concerned with the intricacies of crime as with demons that go bump in the night."  —Daily Mail


"Probably his best book."  —Sunday Telegraph
