The Diamond Murder (The Eric Ward Mysteries)

The Diamond Murder (The Eric Ward Mysteries) (Roy Lewis) is set up as one continuous listen: cover, runtime, and a chapter list on the same page.

A thriving law practice and a happy marriage are almost enough to convince solicitor Eric Ward he has overcome his painful past and started a new life. All it takes is the wrong client for it all to unravel. An investigative journalist beaten to a pulp. A crooked Newcastle businessman living the high life in France. A woman from a half-forgotten past. Former police officer-turned-solicitor Eric Ward represents Eddie Stevens, an investigative reporter on the trail of a hot story. Badly beaten by a local roughneck, Stevens discovers he is on a bigger trail when finds a dead body of an unknown man. Ward’s investigation leads him to Lansley, a shady Newcastle entrepreneur with criminal ties living in Marseilles. Then a woman from Ward’s own half-forgotten past turns up, looking to him to be her savior. A gruesome revelation in the first case just might be the solution to the second. Ward quickly discovers excavating the past can be a dangerous business.

That is the whole offer: the full recording, a chapter index, and a player that does not ask you to sign up.
