Summary

Anty Boisjoly tackles the strange case of a war hero who visits his old friends on Christmas morning—after being murdered on Christmas Eve.

In The Case of the Ghost of Christmas Morning, Wodehousian clubman, flaneur, idler, and sleuth Anty Boisjoly pits his sardonic wits against another pair of impossible murders. This time, Anty Boisjoly’s Aunty Boisjoly is the only possible suspect when a murder victim stands his old friends a farewell drink at the local, hours after being murdered.

Like The Case of the Canterfell Codicil, The Case of the Ghost of Christmas Morning fits the narrow literary needs of those who feel that Lord Peter Wimsey isn’t frivolous enough or that Blandings Castle could stand a few more baffling murders.

A rollicking good yarn of ghosts and murders - really enjoyable and a pleasure for the ears and soul - especially for those who yearn for the past that maybe never was -Albion

If you are in the mood for a light hearted, cosy Golden Age style detective story with the type of humour typical of Jeeves & Wooster, then you will enjoy this. The language is full of witty similes, metaphors and personification and characters well drawn by both the author and the narrator. The answer to the plot is much more complicated than I was expecting for something of this tone and I would like to listen to more stories from the same author & narrator.

Well read, Jeeves & Wooster style comedy detective story

it galloped along at a merry pace, perfectly confusing. Silly names abound as is obligatory in a country murder mystery. Daft fun.

Anty Boisjoly's antics continue with another hilarious mystery full of twists and turns, this time while celebrating Christmas at Aunty Boisjoly's. Light, relaxing and wonderfully Wodehousian.

Wonderfully Wodehousian.
