A young woman is murdered in her Oslo flat. One finger has been severed from her left hand, and behind her eyelid is secreted a tiny red diamond in the shape of a five-pointed star - a pentagram, the devil’s star. Detective Harry Hole is assigned to the case with his long-time adversary Tom Waaler and initially wants no part in it. But Harry is already on notice to quit the force and is left with little alternative but to drag himself out of his alcoholic stupor and get to work. A wave of similar murders is on the horizon....

Where does The Devil's Star rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I have listened to most of this author's books. They are very good. You have to really listen because they all move to the different issues and characters so smoothly you hardly notice. It is easy to miss things.
Have you listened to any of Robin Sachs’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
They are all good.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No

What made the experience of listening to Ross Poldark the most enjoyable?
Great story. Very good listen. But for the money don't buy it. You only get part of the story and you have to buy another book to hear the rest. It makes the book too pricey. It's not THAT good.
What other book might you compare Ross Poldark to and why?
Outlander time period. Poor depth compared to a Gabaldon book.
Have you listened to any of Oliver Hembrough’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No

The title is like a romance novel. But the novel was wonderful. Keeps you interested. The ending unexpected. I loved the readers accent. It fit the setting.
