About this listen

Captain William Hawksmoor of the Royal Navy never expected to inherit Kingscastle and is none too pleased when he does so. Especially when he learns that he must marry within a year or be forever dealing with trustees.

As the new marquis of Athelney, the captain takes command of Kingscastle and discovers much to be done to set it in order. He must also contend with his aunt Lady Willoughby Hawksmoor, who is determined that her daughter will be his wife. When she discovers he is far more interested in Eleanor Burgess, her underpaid and much put-upon companion, Lady Willoughby shows she will stop at nothing to keep them apart.

All the characters a bit over the top. Heroes heroic, villains villanous, etc. However quite entertainingly written and beautifully read by Matt Addis.

Good fun

Well written and humorous story which slightly labours the romance at its heart but which is enjoyable and full of interesting detail about the characters, their lives and surroundings. Matt Addis adds value to any book he narrates.

Great performance of an engaging by story
