After not really liking the first book in the paperback sleuth series, I find for me at least that it has found its feet a bit and books two and three are pretty fun. I still prefer the vinyl detective series, but I quite like how Eric Make Loud and Tinkler appeared in this book.Continue reading “Like a Bullet: The Paperback Sleuths, Book 3 – Andrew Cartmel (Audiobook) Narrated by: Olivia Dowd – 07.08.25”

Underscore: The Vinyl Detective, Book 8 (AUDIOBOOK) – Andrew Cartmel, Narrated by: Finlay Robertson – 04.06.25
In my opinion this 8th instalment in the Vinyl Detective series is a return to form with all the old characters getting together to hunt down an old LP of a movie soundtrack from the 1960s Italian crime caper genre. The grandchildren of the composer/musician want to remaster and re-release the soundtrack from an immaculateContinue reading “Underscore: The Vinyl Detective, Book 8 (AUDIOBOOK) – Andrew Cartmel, Narrated by: Finlay Robertson – 04.06.25”
The Paperback Sleuth – Ashram Assassin – Andrew Cartmel – 30.09.24
I didn’t love the first book in Andrew Cartmel’s Paperback Sleuth series, because I found the main character, Cordelia, too annoying, which was disappointing, because I’m a big fan of the Vinyl Detective series.

Once again they areContinue reading “Noise Floor: The Vinyl Detective Mysteries, Book 7 (Audiobook) – Andrew Cartmel – 20.04024”
Death in Fine Condition (Audiobook) – Andrew Cartmel – 15.04.24
I really love Andrew Cartmel’s Vinyl Detective series, and when looking at reviews of his latest (Noise Floor) I saw people mentioning this new spin off series about the Paperback Sleuth. Like many of the reviewers, I really didn’t know what to make of this new series. There is a character in the Vinyl DetectiveContinue reading “Death in Fine Condition (Audiobook) – Andrew Cartmel – 15.04.24”
The Vinyl Detective – Attack and Decay – Andrew Cartmel (AUDIOBOOK) – 04.06.22
In this latest installment of The Vinyl Detective, the gang go to Sweden in search of a rare Death Metal album, and murder and mayhem ensues. The series still makes me laugh and there are lots of wee things I like about the characters – how they love cats and are foody and so nerdyContinue reading “The Vinyl Detective – Attack and Decay – Andrew Cartmel (AUDIOBOOK) – 04.06.22“
