Apr 06, Gerald Sinstadt rated it liked it Shelves: crime. Brave of a male author to make a female character the main protagonist, but M R Hall succeeds well enough.

Though Jenny Cooper, the coroner of the title, isn't easy to like. She is in psychiatric consultation for some childhood trauma, suffering guilt pangs after a custody struggle from a messy divorce, at the same time addicted to pills and too much alcohol a bottle of red, followed by a bottle of white, beer from the can, brandy meant to be for cooking, etc.

Difficult to see how she was app Brave of a male author to make a female character the main protagonist, but M R Hall succeeds well enough.

Difficult to see how she was appointed in the first place -though for the purpose of the plot it has to be part of a sinister design that would allow those with ulterior motives to control her.

All a bit far-fetched for you? It is, after all, supposed to be happening in and around Bristol. Still, if you can make the effort, the story does turn into a reasonably enticing page-turner.

There's a bit of a let-down when it turns out that one key witness and one key thug only make their first appearances in the closing pages, but in fairness the plotting is scrupulous.

This isn't the worst book of its kind you will find this year, but not the best, either. Jan 28, Pat rated it it was ok. Not bad, not great.

Definitely too long pages , in spite of the rather sparse script-like writing style. And, by the way, Temazepan is not an anti-depressant.

It sends you to sleep. I felt that this book is more a set up for the series to come. I did find the repetitiveness, of her taking pills and her psych consults a bit off-putting after a while as the author had already cemented her issues.

I am intrigued as to what caused her breakdown, so maybe I'm contradicting myself here a b I felt that this book is more a set up for the series to come.

I am intrigued as to what caused her breakdown, so maybe I'm contradicting myself here a bit. I loved that Jenny Cooper rocked into that job and took no prisoners.

She had her lady balls and called a spade a spade. Corruption was rife until Jenny took a good look under the surface and soon she had exposed them all.

I must admit, the first two-thirds were a bit slow, but once this book really got going, I had to carry on until the end.

I have just downloaded book 2. Jenny Cooper spent 15 years practicing child-care law, but a serialized cheating, emotionally abusive husband and subsequent divorce, a missing year from her childhood, resulted in an emotional breakdown and severe panic attacks.

Two of the cases she also inherits are those of a young boy and a teen prostitute, both dead of apparent suicide, both of who spent time in a youth penal facility, and who knew each other when younger.

Jenny begins to suspect Harry of negligence, at best, and possibly a cover-up for murder. I have often read about coroners, but never really understood their role, responsibilities and the extent of their authority.

How nice to finally find an author who not only focuses on that role, as pertains to the UK, but makes it really interesting. Hall weaves these three threads evenly and perfectly, and in such a way that you see the character gain strength and develop as the story progresses.

I like seeing a male author write realistic, female characters, and Jenny is an interesting character. In spite of her issues, you know there is strength there and she will survive.

All the characters were real, whether likable or not, and for some, you felt their angst. There were some minor weaknesses. It was necessary for me to resort to the internet in order to find out where the book is set and what the area looks like.

There were a couple rather large coincidences and predictable threads, but it was still a very good, engrossing read that kept me up until 2 a.

Aug 27, Jools rated it it was amazing. Listened to as an audiobook, and I picked it up on the recommendation of a customer at the library.

I was in no way disappointed - I thoroughly enjoyed it! The main character is flawed, struggling with mental issues and dependent on prescription drugs Eve Listened to as an audiobook, and I picked it up on the recommendation of a customer at the library.

Even to the last disc, when it seemed that all was lost, I was hooked and desperate for Jenny to win.

I'm also a lot better informed as to how the coroner's office works - a subject about which I had very little knowledge before this book.

I'll be hunting down the others in the Jenny Cooper series right away! Jul 15, Teresa rated it liked it. Found this book a bit of a slog at first, and it took a third attempt to really get into it, but once I did I found it pretty good.

Mar 01, Witchmetal rated it really liked it. Slow start to this book but I really enjoyed the depth of the characters. When one woman has to contend not only with conspiracy, obfuscation and corruption in high places but also antagonism and intimidation from colleagues and opponents alike, you would think that it's too much for one individual to manage.

If you add in personal difficulties arising from divorce and psychiatric problems stretching out of childhood trauma you can be sure the odds are stacked against her.

And yet this is what Jenny Cooper, the newly appointed coroner to the fictional Severn Vale Dictr When one woman has to contend not only with conspiracy, obfuscation and corruption in high places but also antagonism and intimidation from colleagues and opponents alike, you would think that it's too much for one individual to manage.

And yet this is what Jenny Cooper, the newly appointed coroner to the fictional Severn Vale Dictrict in Bristol, has to face when she discovers that the suspicious deaths of two young offenders have not apparently been properly investigated by her deceased predecessor.

The Coroner emerges, for all its plus pages, as a real page-turner. As an official who's responsible for holding inquests into violent, sudden, or suspicious deaths Jenny has to confront not just rather graphic pathology reports but occasionally a post mortem.

But worse than either are some of the humans she encounters: an aggressive local authority official, an obstructive pathologist, sneering lawyers and devious corporate types.

She also has to contend with suspicious colleagues, distressed relatives and a critical ex-husband. Luckily she has individuals who she can turn to, if she can but trust theman investigative journalist, a neighbourly dropout, a more sympathetic pathologist, even a hackerbut it's those inner demons that too often stand in her way and, in particular, a childhood experience she's understandably unwilling to contemplate.

The Coroner is a police procedural in all but name, lacking a police officer as its main protagonist: instead we have a lone official whose job is to investigate and ask pertinent questions in order to establish the truth surrounding unnatural deaths.

The author is a former criminal barrister there is a lovely bit of metafiction when Jenny, whose background is in family law, disparages criminal barristers and so the legal, and sometimes illegal, processes which our coroner goes through have the ring of truth.

Further, there is an undercurrent of politics here in implicit criticisms of a system that allows private delivery of a public service for profit, with subsequent lack of transparency and genuine accountability.

The quiet Wye valley near Tintern is a world away from the busy streets and impersonal suburbs of a fictional Bristol region, but trouble seems to find her wherever she is.

Having such a fragile and, admittedly, at times irritating individual to head up a series four novels so far ensures we have some sympathy for her, but even as we will her to succeed we know that, although she may win one battle, the war with corruption and criminality will continue regardless.

A clever and thoughtful piece of crime fiction, then, rather less a whodunit than a case of establishing how and why.

Mar 22, Jane rated it liked it Shelves: borrowed. But there are some authors who can give them that little bit extra to make them more than a generic read.

Could M R Hall be one of them? The set-up was promising. Jenny had an established career as a family lawyer but, after a nasty divorce and a breakdown, she opted for a new career in a new town.

As a coroner. Jenny is struggling to cope and, with her son staying with his father, she is alone and focused solely on survival and the new job.

Her predecessor died suddenly and things are in a mess. And it seems that he had acted strangely in the days leading up to his death.

So Jenny looks at his case files. And finds things that are very wrong. But nobody wants to know and many powerful people want to keep her quiet.

But, for me, the author stuck a little to rigidly to the conventions of the genre; a few too many of the characters seemed to have come straight from central casting.

And there were a few too many characters, a few too many angles. There were some lovely touches and some very well observed moments though.

Jenny was utterly believable as a woman avoiding dealing with difficult issues by focusing only on her job.

And hooray for a pathologist character making an effective contribution without excessive or unpleasant forensic detail! At the end of the day I felt this was a generic novel with a little more class than most.

It feels like the start of a series, and it might be one that goes on repeating the same formula or it might just grow into something more interesting.

And The Coroner is worth a look if you like traditional crime procedurals. Jul 30, Mary rated it really liked it. I have been considering reading this one for a while now and decided it was time to get stuck into it.

Jenny is a troubled soul, addicted to tranquilizers and drinking a little too much. This seems to be connected to an incident in her childhood, she has blocked out of her I have been considering reading this one for a while now and decided it was time to get stuck into it.

This seems to be connected to an incident in her childhood, she has blocked out of her memory and she also suffers severe panic attacks as a result.

She becomes involved in a previous case signed off by her predecessor, Harry Marshall, who seemed to view the suicide of a 14 year old boy whilst in a detention centre, as being somewhat suspicious and the death a few days later of a 15 year old girl of a heroine overdose, also seems to be something Harry was negligent in signing off on as also being an accidental overdose.

The fact that Harry himself died shortly afterwards, gives Jenny cause for concern. She digs deep into the two deaths and soon finds a conspiracy that leaves her trusting no-one and threatens not only her new job, but also her fragile emotional state.

This is a plot I usually don't really enjoy, because the level of corruption can be sometimes too far fetched, but this is written in a manner that allows the reader to accept plot for what it it, a good thriller and a heroine who despite her flaws, is likable and determined to get to the truth, no matter what.

I will certainly be reading the other books in the series. Aug 13, Roy Szweda rated it liked it Shelves: fiction.

Now temazepam is generally used as a sleeping tablet and given the fact that she pops these pills like they were Smarties, plus the amount of alcohol she drinks and I really don't think she would be able to function at all.

There are a couple of instances where she doesn't take anything to help her sleep because she doesn't want to feel groggy in the morning, but then gets up and takes yet more bloody temazepam.

Sorry, I'll get off my soapbox now, sloppy research really bugs me as you may have gathered. I don't know. This books is build on an unstable main character and a mixed salad of ugly reality.

The main character has anxiety and drug problems. Which take a lot of 'screen time' and also induce anxiety in the reader. The main theme is focused on the abysmal way kids are treated, and how most of the society accepts it as 'normal' and 'usual' for kids to have crime records from age of 10, be hooked on drugs and be involved in prostitution by 15, etc.

Be put through legal meat-grinder without pro I don't know. Be put through legal meat-grinder without proper guardianship and representation, and put to 'penal facilities' where they can be further damaged, humiliated, and exploited without question.

A society is judged by how it treats its children. And this book paints you this picture of an unsalvageable shithole of a society.

Though I suppose it's the society's fault, not the book's? Nevertheless, the book is mostly depressing and at times anxiety-inducing.

Not a pleasure to read. I still would like to see the other books in the series, if only to see if anything about the tone changes at all, and I sincerely hope I won't have to read through Jenny completely sabotaging herself each time.

Jenny takes over from a coroner who died and wonders why she's found a file regarding a death he signed off on in a locked drawer.

Given that these two cases involve teens, she doesn't seem due for the quieter life she wanted. I liked it enough to download the second one--Sian Thomas' narration was good and her Welsh accent for some characters sounded right to me I am by no means an expert.

Dec 20, Jen rated it it was amazing Shelves: audio-books , mystery-thriller , favourites. I'm late to the party in finding this series, and I was almost put off reading it by a few reviews, but I absolutely loved it and the character of Jenny Cooper is now one of my personal favourites.

I have already downloaded the next in the series, and really looking forward to seeing how Jenny's career progresses, now that she's managed to cut a swathe through the bureaucracy and powers that be.

The narration by Sian Thomas was absolutely marvellous. Sep 30, Matthew Pandel rated it really liked it. Great story with interesting characters and plot twists.

Only downside is how irritating the main character, Jenny, is. Apr 08, Cliff rated it liked it. I'm not to sure about this book. It's a good read and well plotted.

However, I find the basic premise totally unreal.

Filming began in mid-April for 15 weeks. The episodes were divided into blocks of two with the same director, assistant director, and director of photography.

The Mansion, now a community building, in Totnes was used as the Coroners Court. A brass plate was attached to the brickwork. The exterior and interior of Oldway Mansion is used as Lighthaven's town hall.

The tower at Gribben Head , Cornwall featured in the first episode. They have also been released in Germany and Australia.

All of these releases are PAL format. Although being one of the first BBC drama series to be shot in 4K resolution, there have been no blu-rays released in either 4K or high definition in any region to date.
