About this listen
Is the death of a leading academic a tragic suicide or a heinous murder at the hands of members of the cultish Boudica Society led by the charismatic Florence Farrell?
In the face of apparent police incompetence, Nick Guymer, best mate Jeff, and girlfriend Julie are determined to find out what really happened to Jeff's aunt Susan Rutherford. Jeff is convinced she was murdered but Nick is struggling to fight his crippling depressive moods and struggling to stay in therapy. However, with Julie's help and determination, he begins to uncover a world of dark, dangerous, deep obsessions and even deeper, darker, long-hidden secrets; secrets that will profoundly change everyone's lives, including his own.
Queen of the Tees is set in Teesside, Durham, and North Yorkshire and is the second in the Nick Guymer series of mysteries.
It is a novel about obsession, depression, and car boots.

Story
In the early hours of a summer morning, a young woman steps into the path of an oncoming bus. A tragic accident? Or suicide? At the center of this puzzle is Adrian Wolfe, a successful architect and grief-stricken widower, who, a year after his third wife's death, begins to investigate the cause. As Adrian looks back on their brief but seemingly happy marriage, disturbing secrets begin to surface. The divorces from his two previous wives had been amicable, or so it seemed; his children, all five of them, were resilient as ever, or so he thought.

Story
Melville Heights is one of the nicest neighborhoods in Bristol, England. It’s the sort of place where doctors and lawyers and old-money academics live. It’s not the sort of place where people get stabbed in the back 30 times with a kitchen knife in their own homes. Someone must have seen something. Newlywed Joey Mullen, for example, recently returned from four years of working in Ibiza. She and her husband, Alfie, are eager to find a place of their own in her hometown. But Joey finds herself distracted by the man next door, Tom Fitzwilliam.

Story
In the early hours of a summer morning, a young woman steps into the path of an oncoming bus. A tragic accident? Or suicide? At the center of this puzzle is Adrian Wolfe, a successful architect and grief-stricken widower, who, a year after his third wife's death, begins to investigate the cause. As Adrian looks back on their brief but seemingly happy marriage, disturbing secrets begin to surface. The divorces from his two previous wives had been amicable, or so it seemed; his children, all five of them, were resilient as ever, or so he thought.
