England 1925

The body of a young woman has been found in the garden of The Earl of Unsworth’s estate. Mr. Quayle, the lordships loyal secretary, is tasked with helping the police (Inspector Wintle) solve the crime. Guests and family members who were attending the party at the vast estate, claim to not know the dead woman.

No one seems to enjoy being questioned as they all have something to hide!

This was an engaging and fun audiobook with a fantastic narrator! I hope Rafe Beckley (the narrator) narrates future books in this series.

I thought this was an extremely clever and well thought out murder mystery/whodunit. It is reminiscent of old murder mysteries. I loved how the investigation progressed. Everyone had secrets and things to hide. I enjoyed the plot and that there were no slow parts. Everything flowed nicely and at a nice pace. This book played out like a movie in my mind. The characters were fun, interesting and engaging.

Thank you to BooksGoSocial Audio and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
