Read by Deborah Greenfield
Run time: 7 hrs and 54 minutes
Summary:
An admiral washes up dead wearing inappropriate attire and pretty much everybody’s wondering whodunit.
Additional Comments:
- Dr. Alexandra Gladstone wants to run an autopsy, but the local constable seems dead set against the idea.
- Characters 4.5/5 stars: Charming cast that revolves around a curious doctor, a literal nosy Nancy, an angry young man, a quiet victim, and an intrepid barrister
- Plot 3.5/5: It kind of meanders. It’s not bad in audio form, but I can see it being annoying to read. There’s not much action.
- Performance 4/5: Characters are distinguishable.
- Mystery’s conclusion 4.5/5: Typical but satisfactory.
- I added a random half point because no matter how slowly a story unfolds, a satisfying end can erase many wrongs.
Conclusion:
I didn’t read book 1 and didn’t really need to. It’s a standalone mystery with interesting characters.
