About this listen

One morning before dawn at her regal country estate, Lady Lavinia Truelove is crushed to death by a horse. Classified as “death by misadventure”, this appears a gruesome accident, but Scotland Yard detective Joe Sandilands suspects foul play.

His suspicions are aggravated by his personal grievances toward Sir James Truelove, Lady Lavinia's widower and the influential academic patron of Dorcas Joliffe, whom Joe one day hopes to marry. As Joe's investigation yields surprising secrets about one of England's most powerful families, he also discovers secrets about Dorcas.

Terry Wale is the voice of this whole series, I really missed him. Just couldn't cope with the change.

Why didn't they stick to Terry Wale as narrator?

The reader is commended for his warm, engaging tone and his wide range of accents! He moves easily from aristocratic English to an authentic Suffolk vernacular and a convincing American. His voice is full of energy and delight in the story right to the last sentence.

Lively read.
