About this listen

The aristocracy abide by a different set of rules...or so it seems to Sam Applewhite when her job brings her to Candlebroke Hall, the stately home. The burglary definitely wasn’t what it appeared to be, and the subsequent accidents suggest that it’s a dangerous place to spend time.

Sam is caught up in events as she tries to protect the interests of young Hilde Odinson, part of the local viking family. The Odinsons insist on doing things their own way though, with scant regard for the law. In the meantime, Sam starts to understand that while many people would kill to live at Candlebroke Hall, maybe there are others who would kill to get away from it.

this is yet another great book by Iain and Heide, which I really enjoyed.

the book is the third in the Sam Applewhite series and just like the other ones is very well written and the narrator really helped me get into the story.

yet another great book in the series

Another fantastic tale of of Sam Applewhite, a gruesome death and her viking friends.

When the scheming former starlet Kiki Lettuce (prounounced Le Tucces don't you know) and her side kick Antonio try to sell off her former stately homes valuables, she comes across the persistent civil service worker (come detective) Sam Applewhite.

Sam is torn between solving a burglary and protecting her viking friend Hilda, when she meets the enigmatic Kiki.

what ensues is a tale of a tug of war struggle for ownership of the viking sail ship Sandraker, a romance between Kiki and Sam's father and an investigation into her bizarre friends the vikings being nazi fascist in the sleepy town of Skegness!

I absolutely love this series of adventures and gruesome deaths!

Such a fun and interesting listen. It’s over the top, but it’s never too much, the characters are both outrageous and believable at the same time, and the plot puts them in funny and crazy situations at every turn… but because the writing is good, it never gets away from itself.

The narration is fantastic, there are characters which might have been difficult to listen to from a less skilled narrator, but he really draws the best out of how all of them are written.

It’s hard to define this in terms of genre, it’s a caper, urban fantasy, cosy mystery, crime, …. it packs a huge amount of content in one book.

So engaging!
