The first of the classic mysteries featuring governess-turned-detective Miss Silver, who investigates a deadly conspiratorial ring.

Charles Moray has come home to England to collect his inheritance. After four years wandering the jungles of India and South America, the hardy young man returns to the manor of his birth, where generations of Morays have lived and died. Strangely, he finds the house unlocked, and sees a light on in one of its abandoned rooms. Eavesdropping, he learns of a conspiracy to commit a fearsome crime.

Never one for the heroic, Charles’s first instinct is to let the police settle it. But then he hears her voice. Margaret, his long lost love, is part of the gang. To unravel their diabolical plot, he contacts Miss Silver, a onetime governess who applies her reason to solve crimes and face the dangers of London’s underworld.

This was my fourth Miss Silver, and my least favourite so far. Still work a listen and Diana Bishop is a wonderful narrator. I found this dragged in places and some of the repetitive phrases used by one of the characters was ‘frightfully’ annoying. A meandering and tortuous tale at times, a reasonably predictable outcome.
If this is your first Miss Silver, do persevere, they get a lot better!

Not one of my favourite Miss Silver books

Very addictive to listen to. When you can see it all in your mind you know it's good 👍🏻 Loved it.

Excellent plot, characters and reading.

Later books are better. Miss Silver solves most unlikely problems and never says how .

Not really Miss Silver yet

Thoroughly enjoyable despite being of its time. I liked that the women were resourceful and clever, although it was funny to hear “for a woman” as the negative hook each time. There was also an annoying (in the language of the time) “frightfully silly” young woman, but on the whole the characters were great and the plot nicely complicated. It did get confusing in parts and if I was reading the physical book I would have had to go back to check who was related to who. That’s the one downside of an audiobook. But it was pleasing to discover a new writer and impressive to find Miss Silver predates Miss Marple. I’ll definitely look for more Patricia Wentworth!

Enjoyable undemanding old-school mystery
