About this listen

When Andrea Gower’s body is discovered in an editing suite, with gashes in her wrists and two razor blades nearby, the cause of death seems obvious, with the words she spoke only hours before taking on a completely different meaning....

Working as a radio actor for the BBC was all new to Charles Paris: a new kind of work, a new jargon, and a lot of new faces - some of them quite pretty. But Charles, amateur sleuth and fond of the odd tipple, can’t get the dead girl out of his mind. And when the trail leads him to New York and back, by way of a DJ, an American conman, and another dead body, it becomes only a matter of time before the clues start falling into place....

Made me laugh a lot, especially loved the spiky critic comments punctuating a meandering Charles through his highs and lows and the oft rediculous and/or tragic antics of just about everybody.

Audio Aunty.

I liked it all. Interesting to explore the old BBC procedures and operations. Well read in that nonchalant way that gives the bohemian vibe so nicely.

Good plot
