About this listen

Dinner at an ancient Cornish inn leads to one baffling disappearance after another in the fifth intriguing Ishmael Jones mystery.

“It’s just a nice weekend, in a nice country inn. Nothing bad is going to happen....”

Ishmael Jones and his partner Penny are attending the re-opening of Tyrone’s Castle, an ancient Cornish inn originally built by smugglers. Over dinner that night, the guests entertain one another with ghost stories inspired by local legends and superstitions. But it would appear that the curse of Tyrone’s Castle has struck for real when one of their number disappears into thin air. And then another....

Is the inn really subject to an ancient curse? Sceptical of ghost stories, Ishmael believes the key to the mystery lies in the present rather than the past. But with no bodies, no evidence, and no clues to go on, how can he prove it?

I can’t even tell you why I enjoy these books so much, but I love them. So very entertaining and the narrator is excellent. In these stressful days it is very pleasant to escape reality for a while.. Plus, there are quite a few in the series I am happy to say. Going to get my next listen now.

Love these books

Great story. I had to give up trying to listen. The readers voice llilts up and down in all the wrong places for me. If you like G. Jackson though, this is a good story to listen to.

Sadly the reader reminds me of Lost Voice Guy.

Having read the previous book which was brilliant, this is pretty much a carbon copy locked room (house) mystery without the mummy.

The characters are deeply stupid and contrary. They deserve their fate since they do the absolute opposite of what a vaguely intelligent person would do.

I like the premise so I'll give the next book a chance, but reading the details, I suspect this author only has one plot in his repertoire.

Could have been 3 hours shorter - uninspired
