About this listen

’Till death do us part may come sooner than they thought....

The year 1934. Kitty Underhay steps out of the battered Rolls Royce and onto the graveled driveway of Thurscomb Castle in deepest Yorkshire. She’s honored to be a bridesmaid at her cousin Lucy’s wedding to the reluctant Lord Rupert Woodcomb, but as family and friends gather for welcome drinks, Kitty dodges intrusive questions about her own marital status by taking a stroll about the castle grounds. As she passes through the manicured gardens, a fatal shot rings out....

The valet, Evans, is dead. And Kitty can’t help but notice how rattled the man standing next to him seems. Could Rupert’s best man, The Right Honorable Alexander "Sandy" Galsworthy, believe the speeding bullet was meant for him?

When she discovers that Sandy has been receiving blackmail notes, Kitty suspects that one of the assembled guests has plans to make good on their threats. The local constabulary won’t act on Kitty’s hunch, so, busy with her bridesmaid’s duties, she asks her beau, ex-army captain Matthew Bryant, to help.

The ceremony passes without a hitch. But when an anxious Sandy slips away during the dancing, Matt follows, only to make a hideous discovery: Sandy is dead, flattened on the terrace by some falling masonry.

Now the duo are sure that there is a murderer within the castle walls. But can they untangle Sandy’s final hours and catch this killer before they strike again, or will the wedding bells be replaced by a death knell for Kitty herself?

A completely charming cozy historical Golden Age murder mystery! Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, T.E. Kinsey, and Lee Strauss.

The Miss Underhay Mystery series was previously narrated by Alex Tregear, who is now beginning a new adventure as she trains to be an occupational therapist.

Love this story the same as I did the ones before. Unfortunately the narrating wasn't good in fact I switch off as the woman just didn't hold my attention. It took a while to get use of the voices she used & how it changed the characters personality. Made Kitty sound like a snob & Matt wasn't right either voice too deep. I hope the next book will be read by the original narrator she was great.

Great story shame about the narrating

I have really enjoyed the series until this point. Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy the new narrator, I found her voices too different from the original narrator. Hence I only listened to a couple of chapters and could not get into the story.

Different narrator

Yet another Fantastic mystery. The one thing I did not like was the narrator, she was not the best as portraying the characters.

Great story, narrator spoils the book

I have listened to the miss underhay mysteries and really enjoyed them but the change in narration was awful it changed the way I viewed the characters, I have already purchased the next few books and have checked who the narrator is as I would be returning them!!

Narration simply awful

I’ve read all the kitty underhay books so far and enjoyed them all but not this one quite as much. I think the new narrator had something to do with it. She made Kitty and the others sound far too posh, more like our royal family! She speaks beautifully in previous books and I’m thankful to see a change in narrator for her next book which I can’t wait to listen to. Even Muffy the dog has his own character and Alice the maid is funny but respectful. Out of all the cozy murders I have read these are a firm favourite.

I enjoy the characters and settings of the era
