For anyone who loved and misses Granger's Alan Markby series this is a must! Fortunately Judith Boyd narrates again brilliantly and this is an easy cosy listen.

A great easy listen!

I enjoyed the book. It wasn't the best but average. I loved the character of Uncle Monty with his eccentricities. The book did capture the atmosphere that it could of and that was my problem with it.

Rack, ruin and a fair read

good for listening to as you're going to sleep, as I like to, because it isn't full of grizzly details and not too many exciting moments.

I appreciate when the author has thought about words other than "said", and the author has been creative with the language in this book.

I would only have given 3 stars for the story because it does drag a bit, certainly it's not life changing. however there's a nice twist right at the end that I really didn't see coming.

rather slow but a good twist at the end
