Özet
For its own very good reasons, Scotland Yard sends Dover off to remote Creedshire to investigate the disappearance of a young housemaid, Juliet Rugg. Though there's every cause to assume that she has been murdered - she gave her favours freely and may even have stooped to a bit of blackmail - no body is to be found. Weighing in at sixteen stone, she couldn't be hard to overlook. But where is she? And why should Dover, of all people, be called upon to find her? Or, for that matter, even bother to solve the damned case?

“Miss Porter shows splendid fertility in comic invention. The comic-horrific ending must be the best crime fiction joke of the year.” JULIAN SYMONS, Sunday Times©1964 Joyce Porter (P)2019 W. F. Howes Ltd

If I hadn't heard the Dover series dramatised on BBC R4, I might have enjoyed this. But Kenneth Cranham IS Dover. He oozes his awfulness! And so this reading is a pale imitation as opposed to the full on production which I highly recommend for fantastic entertainment.

Spoiled by R4 version

Nice mystery gets straight into the story and keeps going. Unlike a lot of mysteries we don't get forced to learn about the detective fir the first half a book before a story starts. Sticks to the story.

Enjoyable

I really enjoyed this book. The humour is subtle and the plot never falters. Good characterisations too.

The narration by Sam Devereaux was excellent, perfectly capturing each district voice. Sometimes, when a book has a few characters, the narrator can get voices mixed up but not this one. He was spot on throughout.

I will be listening to Dover Two, but there are no more books on Audible after that. The author wrote many more so I am hoping they become audiobooks as well.

Dover One!!!

Although these days it would be classed as politically incorrect, it didn’t bother me at all. You have to take it at the time it was written. At times it was
Light and I liked the characters and the story.

Enjoyable

Attitude towards people who are different, although this was more typical in the 60’s not acceptable.

Misogyny over crime victim where size was considered a point of derision.
