About this listen

September 1940. The height of the Blitz.

When the Savoy advertises its series of underground shelters, a crowd of people from East London arrive at the hotel and demand entry. There they find a shelter worthy of the Savoy's clientele, but the next morning, after the air raid and when the Stepney protestors have left, it is discovered that one of the hotel's guests is dead, stabbed through the heart. Detective Chief Inspector Coburg and Sergeant Lampson are called in, and the finger of suspicion falls firmly upon the East Londoners, but not everything is as it seems in these sumptuous surroundings.

I love a good detective story especially when I learn something new, and this book did not disappoint.
The story is well written and gave me a little idea, what it might have been like going though the blitz, in war time London,
I once again had no idea who done it till the end, and I’ve become very invested in the main characters, well worth a listen.I highly recommend, and I look forward to the next book in the series.

I really enjoyed this book

Wherever people gather, secrets and intrigue also gather. Jim Eldridge spins a yarn with all the knots and twists that go into a whodunit. The characters are strong and mystery compelling. If I have a quibble it is, that once Detective Chief Inspector Coburg makes his breakthrough the story wraps up too fast. This is book 2 in a set, so I will now visit the other two hotels in the series.

If hotels could talk

Simply outstanding & narrated by David - the best in the business. I love these stories - the characters are fully formed & engaging in me more to go before I start the museum series!

Another wonderful story by Jim!

I have really enjoyed reading this story. Better than the Museum Series, and I really enjoyed those too. Please please could we have more stories featuring DCI Coburg , his wife Rosa and Sargeant Lampson. Brilliant.

Brilliant story.

Enjoyed listening to this book. Great narration, with a simple but twisty story. Love books based in the forties and second world War.
