About this listen

For Lady Eleanor Swift, Paris means champagne at breakfast, romantic walks by the Eiffel Tower… and her deadliest case yet!

Newlyweds Lady Swift and Detective Hugh Seldon are honeymooning in the most romantic city on earth. Clifford, her butler, has come along for the trip to make sure everything goes to plan for the happy couple. And Gladstone, the mischievous bulldog, to make sure it doesn’t!

But the pair are shocked when, just as they are toasting their new marriage at the best table in their hotel’s opulent restaurant, a man tumbles through the glass roof and lands amid the silverware and coq au vin. Before he dies, he presses a striking pearl brooch into Eleanor’s hands. She has the strangest feeling of déjà vu. Has she met this man before? All too quickly, the local police arrive and immediately accuse the new Mr and Mrs of working with the victim–a thief who’d just robbed the museum down the block.

With her new husband by her side, Eleanor races to clear their name and discover who would kill to get their hands on the unusual brooch. Following a clue about a doomed love affair takes the gang from the famous cabarets and cobbled streets of Paris to rubbing shoulders with the aristocracy at the very top of the Eiffel Tower.

But soon Eleanor notices a mysterious man in black following their every footstep. Is he friend or foe? And can Eleanor and Hugh unravel the case before the City of Light becomes the city of death?

An utterly charming golden age cozy mystery set in Paris. Fans of T.E. Kinsey, Catherine Coles and Lee Strauss will adore it.

I enjoy lighter murder-mystery books for relaxation and as an antidote to the stress of being both a family carer and holding down a stressful job. They are a great way to switch off and escape from daily concerns, and to distract from ruminating whilst undertaking tasks. Especially when a set of stories is paired well with a good narrator such as Karen Cass. I'm really enjoying the development of characters, the relationships, humor, and storylines in the Lady Eleanor Swift Mysteries. Sometimes authors run out of steam or simply wish to move on to writing other series of books. But in this case the series has continued and with an ongoing high standard of writing. I realise that the Pseudonymn of Verity Bright is for a husband and wife team who write this series, so who ever the authors are, thank you so much for the books and continuing to write the series for so long, They are greatly enjoyed and appreciated.

Another terrific murder mystery with Eleanor, Hue and Clifford end up in the middle of a murder when a body fills in them while eating dinner. With everyone trying to point the finger at them with no apparent reason why. Loads of fun running around trying to put all the leaves together. Read brilliantly once again by Karen Cass.
