About this listen

Lizzie Martin, lady's companion, has been sent from London to the New Forest to comfort a young woman whose baby has tragically died. A sad enough task, but things take an even darker turn when a rat-catcher is found murdered, and the young woman is discovered beside the body, crying and covered in blood. Not knowing where else to turn, Lizzie calls upon her friend Inspector Ben Ross to solve the horrific crime.

I found this story a pleasure to listen to the characters are believable and don’t get on your nerves. I like this period and the author transports you back to Victorian times without the need to give the reader a lecture or history lesson, the narrators were superb too, just how I imagine them to sound and I enjoyed the different perspectives of the chapters. Fran varady is my favourite Granger character but Lizzie Martin is a close second. Will listen to more.

A really enjoyable mystery
