Summary

Imagine Agatha Christie crossed with Murder, She Wrote . . .

In Aunt Kate and Lady Jane's second lighthearted cozy mystery, Kate's retired friend Norman West goes missing. But does his disappearance relate to a brutal murder?

England, June 1928

The relationship between aunt and niece continues to grow when Lady Jane comes to stay with Kate in Sandham-on-Sea.

However, instead of enjoying a week of fine dinners, long lunches, and clotted cream teas, they become entangled with Norman's secret life and a murderous conspiracy—which Scotland Yard's Inspector Ridley insists they stay away from.

Faced with an ensemble of suspicious tourists and local busybodies, our daring duo must unravel a tangle of lies and deception if they're to discover whodunnit.

Join Kate and Lady Jane in an entertaining 1920s cozy mystery. Perfect for fans of T. E. Kinsey, Verity Bright, and Lee Strauss.

A nice story but woeful narration

I managed to listen to both this and the first book - just. Having moved on to aTE Kinsey book, the weaknesses of this have been shown up. It’s an ok story, but while the narrator reads carefully, witticisms and emphasise are lost. Why on earth someone from the midlands was given a series based in Sussex to read I cannot fathom. I don’t want to be unkind but she sounds a bit like a SatNav.there were also some dreadful mispronunciations: Stephano was Stephan-o, and Samuel Pepys was Mr Peppies…. Does no one listen to things before publishing? I didn’t really like the main character, though her niece was more appealing. There were too many extraneous people mentioned and, as with the first book, probably too many roughly drawn characters rather than a field of likely suspects. It also hard to place the novel historically, sounds more like the 50’s than the 20’s. I don’t think I will listen to another, unless they replace the narrator. Read by someone else I probably would.
