Murder Takes the High Road

Written by Josh Lanyon

Narrated by Gary Furlong

From award-winning male/male author Josh Lanyon: a librarian finds himself in a plot right out of one of his favorite mystery novels

Librarian Carter Matheson is determined to enjoy himself on a Scottish bus tour for fans of mystery author Dame Vanessa Rayburn. Sure, his ex, Trevor, will also be on the trip with his new boyfriend, leaving Carter to share a room with a stranger, but he can’t pass up a chance to meet his favorite author.

Carter’s roommate turns out to be John Knight, a figure as mysterious as any character from Vanessa’s books. His strange affect and nighttime wanderings make Carter suspicious. When a fellow traveler’s death sparks rumors of foul play, Carter is left wondering if there’s anyone on the tour he can trust.

Drawn into the intrigue, Carter searches for answers, trying to fend off his growing attraction toward John. But as unexplained tragedies continue, the whole tour must face the fact that there may be a murderer in their midst—but who?

Reviews for Murder Takes the High Road

[Kristina · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This appears to be a standalone book from Josh Lanyon. Gary Furlong, the narrator, did a great job (even better than normal considering that his native dialect in not American English). I found the main character Carter, to be very endearing and lovable. The mini-drama's that accompanied the mystery were entertaining.
