About this listen

When amateur sleuth Augusta Peel receives a mysterious letter about a missing young woman, she can’t resist helping with the search. But the case takes a turn when an art student is found dead in a Bloomsbury square.

Could the murder have something to do with Augusta’s investigation? The more questions she asks, the fewer answers she receives.

Someone’s hiding something. Has Augusta really got the time to discover what it is? She’s supposed to be running her new venture—a second-hand bookshop in Bloomsbury. Fortunately her wartime spy colleague, Detective Inspector Philip Fisher of Scotland Yard, is on hand to help.

A second murder piles on the pressure. For as long as secrets remain buried, young women are in danger …

A relaxing whodunnit that kept the listener’s attention though the story was very conventional with a limited number of potential suspects.Such a novel had to be read by an older female English reader as the main character was getting on in years and happily it was not someone with a North American accent which would have prevented me listening at all.It is important that the person chosen to read any book is suitable as a good story can be avoided just by listening to a sample.
I shall certainly look out for more of the same on Audible whether from this author or others who can provide a convincing tale read by someone who understands the need for clear diction

Beautifully read

Entertaining and light, recommended for a few hours of solace. The historical note at the end is a nice touch.

Lovely characters and easy to image the era and london as it was back then. A really good book that kept me guessing and I didn’t get it until the reveal!

Great twist… didn’t see it coming
