Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 375
A large country mansion. A locked room. A gruesome murder. Russian oligarch Alexander Volkov has invited 1,000 guests to a party at his palatial Surrey residence, Westgrave Hall. But while giving a private tour of the library, a gunman kills Volkov, wounding his ex-wife and slaying her new beau. Nothing makes sense to DCI Craig Gillard. In the blood-spattered crime scene there are no forensic traces of anyone else involved, CCTV shows no one entered or left the library, and everyone seems to have an alibi.

I have never read a plot like this one. How does Nick Louth come up with these stories? Another absolutely excellent book.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 354
On the tree-lined banks of Surrey's River Wey, a decaying corpse is dug up by workmen in the middle of an Anglo-Saxon burial site. His modern dental fillings show that this is no Dark Age corpse... DCI Craig Gillard is called in, but the body's condition makes identification difficult. One man, however, seems to fit the bill: Ozzy Blanchard, a contractor employed by the same water firm doing the digging who disappeared six months ago, his crashed company car found nearby.

This series is under-rated. It shouldn't be.

So clever

You will not see the ending coming! So many twists and turns and Anglo-Saxons to boot!
As always Marston York's voice is as smooth as butter.

A young detective is out for a jog on a snowy winter morning. Then she sees something terrible: a murder in the park, sudden and inexplicable. A woman has been killed by a passing hooded cyclist. It’s just DCI Craig Gillard’s luck that he’s on duty. The body is that of Tanvi Roy, one of the richest women in Britain and matriarch of a food empire. With a tangled web of family and business contacts and jealousies, Gillard’s job just got even more complex. As he delves deeper into the Roy family, it’s clear that everything is not as it seems.

Great Book
Revisado: 03-20-23
Nick Louth is my favorite writer. Medical details are always well-researched and accurate. Nothing is more annoying than a story that isn't believable because science doesn't support it. All of the DCI Gillard books are amazing and I have listened to each of them more than once.
Marston York's voice is smooth and delicious to listen to. He is able to do countless British and Indian accents beautifully, and performs a female voice effortlessly. It is such a shame that the audiobook community has not yet discovered this gem of a voice!

Love it!!!!
Revisado: 01-08-14
What made the experience of listening to A Cup of Friendship the most enjoyable?
With so many words not familiar to an English speaker it was entertaining to hear how to pronounce them correctly.
What was one of the most memorable moments of A Cup of Friendship?
I can not pick just one. So many great sub plots.
What does Mozhan Marno bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Of course Deborah Rodriguez writes the most amazing novels and I am waiting for her next, but I need to sign the praises of the narration. Mozhan Marno is a joy to listen to. She never screeches, always has a pleasant voice. Marno has a numerous accents down pat, and gives different characters their own cadence. Isabell sounds haughty, Yasminia sounds humble. What a joy! I will look for other books read by her!
If you could rename A Cup of Friendship, what would you call it?
I liked the original name. Cup of friendship doesn't tell me that it is about life in Afghanistan. If I wasn't looking for more books written by Deborah Rodriguez, I wouldn't have found this book.
Any additional comments?
Debbie, please write more books.
