About this listen

July 1910. Lady Hardcastle and her tireless sidekick Flo have finally embarked on a long-overdue seaside break. But just as they’re wavering between ice creams and donkey rides, their fellow guests start to go missing - and the duo find themselves with a hysterical hotel manager and a case to solve.

The first to disappear is Dr Goddard, a scientist doing something terribly top-secret for the government. Gone too are his strongbox and its mysterious contents. By the time Lady Hardcastle has questioned the horde of international guests, her number-one suspect has been dispatched in grisly circumstances - and then the others start vanishing too.

As the case begins to look like a matter of national security, Lady Hardcastle takes advice from her brother in the secret service. But could there be an even more personal connection at play? To solve the case, Lady Hardcastle may face a shocking discovery of her own.

I really enjoy thr stories of Emily and Flo and their adventures. They are easy to listen to and the plots are brilliantly written. The narrator adds a great deal to my pleasure when I listen to these stories. She is brilliant.

Yet another winner from the pen of T.E. Kinsey. Believable characters you warm to or loathe. A story that grips you & the wonderful relationship between the main characters. A joy. When's the next out???

Another Hardcastle & Armstrong masterpiece

As with all the other Lady Hardcastle books, this was thoroughly enjoyable. Tucked up under a duvet in miserable weather turned out to be the perfect place to listen. Wonderful performance from the storyteller and well written a joyas I live not to far away from the setting. I do believe I will read every Lady Hardcastle book that comes out and let's all hope there will be many! One to listen to again and again! Bravo!

A jolly cosy read!
