A story you can loose yourself in. R Austin Freeman writes imaginative and believable stories of the time, this is one I read as a book many years ago, I see audible are adding more of his titles, can't wait to hear Mr Pottermack's Oversight on audible, as well as " A certain Dr Thorndyke"

Great Story

The description of London by R Austin Freeman bring his story alive . I was lucky to have seen and walked in the same places many now gone . Again Graham Scott is the perfect reader .

Very early mystery great bedtime read.
