Wodehouse meets Christie

I do not say this lightly, I have only so far had this book but I will be getting all the others by her, but it was wonderful, it kept me guessing, but with the lightness of PG Wodehouse and set in the 1920's, so for fan's of old time murder mystery with very good cocktail recipes this is the book for you, ENJOY!

Again a fantastic period murder mystery

I just love this series of audiobooks.What can I say,fantastic period characters combined with a killer plot.
It is so addictive and has so many twists and turns with plenty of spice.
The 1920s at its best with a feelgood factor.
It certainly has me gripped.
Highly recommended listening,fantastic.

Not up to the usual standard

I was disappointed with this,although the narration by Stephanie Daniels is superb the storyline made me feel horrible.Even in today's world it would be extreme to encounter such a party,one cannot imagine it set in 1928/9 !!!

Murder in the Dark

Another terrific murder mystery with Miss Fisher trying to find someone who has never been found. With death threats, to put her off going to the party, Miss Fisher became determined to find out what was going on. Read brilliantly again by Stephanie Daniel.
