I heard a bit of it Angela but didn't like the actors' voices at all. Not at all how I imagined them while reading the book and I think they would have put me off reading it if I had heard the radio version first. I've still got the 4th book of the series to read which I'm "saving" for a special treat as I know I wont have another to look forward to when I've finished it. 
At present I'm reading "A Fine Line" by Gianrico Carofiglio.  It's the first book I've read by him. He used to be a prosecutor specialising in organised crime and also an advisor on the anti -Mafia committee.

I didn't enjoy it either la alma, nothing like the book.  The voices were not as I imagined them to be and the content was brief and lacking.  I wont be listening to this Sundays episode ! 'A Fine Line' sounds interesting,  I will look it up on Kindle books and add it to my growing list of books to read.
