Publisher's Summary
Featuring his famous literary Detective Atticus Pund and Susan Ryeland, hero of the worldwide best seller Magpie Murders, a brilliantly brain-teasing literary thriller by Anthony Horowitz. The follow-up to Magpie Murders.
Retired publisher Susan Ryeland is living the good life. She is running a small hotel on a Greek island with her long-term boyfriend, Andreas. It should be everything she's always wanted - but is it? She's exhausted with the responsibilities of making everything work on an island where nothing ever does, and truth be told she's beginning to miss her old life in London.
And then a couple - the Trehearnes - come to stay, and the story they tell about an unfortunate murder that took place on the same day and in the same hotel in which their daughter was married is such a strange and mysterious one that Susan finds herself increasingly fascinated by it. And when the Trehearnes tell her that their daughter is now missing, Susan knows that she must return to London and find out what really happened....

A Leonine Adventure
A book that I am going to remember for a long time to come. A Horowitz classic that deftly handles a metanarrative as well as the main plot. A brilliant book that, in my opinion, even pales The Magpie Murders. Atticus Pund and Susan and The Lion forms a triangulated scheme that delivers a well indented narrative sucker punch that I, for one, relished.

Loved the concept, the execution not as much
I love murder mysteries that can be read in an afternoon or two, which is why I loved everything Agatha Christie wrote. Anything longer poses a real risk of forgetting important clues that appeared early on.
Although in theory having a mystery within a mystery is a great concept, it made the book too long for my taste.
Great book regardless, but thought Magpie Murders was better

Very entertaining. Unforeseeable ending.
Love the book in book format very much! You get two mysteries for the price of one! Well-performed and entertaining book.

A very good performance
Liked the way the book was read, both by Lesley and Allan… him a bit more. The story was amazing but when the credits were read by Allan gave away that Leo is the murderer, also the repeated emphasis on the spouse is the first suspect in both stories also gave that up, Still liked the way they brought about the story.

Quite an Extraordinary Turn of Events
Kept me hanging on suspense on every page.. Loved that the book leaves its readers or rather its listeners so engrossed. A story within a story... Just brilliant. It felt sort of obvious here and there but overall took me by surprise and left me restless as if I were the silent witness present at every scene.
Quite good narration!

My first audiobook
I struggle a lot with audiobooks and this is the first one I finished! I enjoyed this one but would definitely have been easier and faster if I'd read it. Good performance and an interesting story. The story within("Atticus Pund takes the case") was tiring at first but got better as it went on. Great audiobook for beginners. 👍
