August, 1940. On the streets of London, locals watch with growing concern as German fighter planes plague the city’s skyline. But inside the famous Ritz Hotel, the cream of society continues to enjoy all the glamour and comfort that money can buy during wartime - until an anonymous man is discovered with his throat slashed open.

Detective Chief Inspector Coburg is called in to investigate, ably assisted by his trusty colleague, Sergeant Lampson. With the crime committed in rooms in use by an exiled king and his retinue, there are those who fear diplomatic repercussions and would rather the case be forgotten. Coburg and Lampson must untangle a web of deception if they are to solve the case - and survive.

Having read & then listened to all Jim Eldridges Museum Mysteries, this is two or three steps up.....it's amazing! Fantastic story. Believable characters. Wonderful narrator. Happy & sad bits too. Yes, I cried listening to a few chapters! Really looking forward to the other stories in this series. We'll worth even buying a credit for.

Having read the underground series, I have gone backwards to the first stories of Edgar Coburg,Ted Lamson , Rosa et al and it’s brilliant - especially as it’s almost a back story for me! I cannot recommend highly enough. The narration is world class and amongst the best I have listened to. Excellent novels.

Wonderful storytelling.

Very entertaining a very good performance from the narrator. It will be interesting to see if book two is as good - I hope so.

I've listened to the museum mysteries bynthe same author and loved those, so this was the next step. I really enjoyed the vocal characterisation by the narrator and the story was gripping and twisty turny. I'll definitely be listening to the next one.
