About this listen

The genteel tranquility of a country house party is shattered when the gamekeeper is shot. Was his death the result of his recent indiscretions, or long-buried secrets?

The weekend was supposed to be an enjoyable time with her family at the neo-Gothic manor of Lord and Lady Kershaw, but when the gamekeeper is murdered, Cleo can’t rest until the killer is caught. As a witness herself, she’s frustrated with the incompetence of the local police who lay the blame on a man who conveniently disappeared. When she realizes their ineptitude is a result of Lord Kershaw’s influence, she focuses her investigation on the earl and his family, against the wishes of her uncle.

The arrival of her suspects at the Mayfair Hotel allows Cleo to continue the investigation after the country house party ends, but what she discovers unnerves her. The gamekeeper’s reputation for seducing young women has left a trail of broken hearts, from the lowest maid to the highest lady. But could there be another reason for his murder?

Meanwhile, the hotel staff have secrets of their own to hide. As loyalties are tested on several fronts, Cleo needs her friends more than ever if she is to unravel the mysteries, both old and new.

Another great story and plot and I very much enjoyed it ….
But two things start to bore me now in the 10th book and that is this endless addiction problem of the aunt (come to an end of that!
And the tingle tangle of a brewing relationship/ engagement between the two main characters….

Time to change that - otherwise the plot is wonderful and the narrator did a great job 👌

Looking forward to the next book in this series 👍

Great plot and most enjoyable

Great plot, great story! So much better than the last, which seemed like a filler. This advances the stories of the characters as well as a great mystery. Can’t wait to the next one.

Loving this whole series and have been waiting with bated breath for this next instalment, another great mystery and gripping storyline, and dare I say finally!!! those who have read/listened to all the books so far in the series will have one long anticipated question answered. And another great narration done by Ms Hussey, getting me right down into the story until the end not wanting to press pause. Hope there are many more to come.

an absolute must
