I read few Ann Granger's novels. Lizzie and Ben Ross are my favourite characters. And I'm glad that it is the first book of the serie. the interview with the writer at the end, it's an extra.

Very enjoyable

I really enjoyed this. I listen to a lot of Victorian era stuff and thought this better than most. I thought the characters were good, with an interesting back story, that set them up nicely for more books to come. The narrators were both very good, it was quite nice to follow the story from both Lizzie Martin's and Det. Ben Ross' point of view. I will be definitely listening to the next in the series.
