Resurrection Row

A Charlotte and Thomas Pitt Novel

By: Anne Perry

Narrated by: Davina Porter

Fourth in the series of Charlotte and Thomas Pitt mysteries, Anne Perry's Resurrection Row explores the dark undercurrents that run through the lives of the idle rich in Victorian England.

After a wonderful night at the theatre, Thomas and Charlotte find themselves confronted with a corpse in the driver's seat of a cab. Even more shocking, it is the body of a peer who had been decently buried the week before. While the doctor insists Lord Fitzroy-Hammond died a natural death, the Pitts find the situation anything but natural. Determined to get to the bottom of things, Inspector Pitt begins his investigation within the proper channels while his intrepid wife, Charlotte, renews a tie from her past to get inside Lord Fitzroy-Hammond's world. But as they dig their way closer the truth, they find themselves in danger from forces who will do anything to keep it buried.

Critic reviews

"This provocative tale, extremely well read by Davina Porter, is highly recommended.�" (Library Journal)

Good story, stellar narration

I enjoyed the story. I love the Pitts and this era's mysteries. It was read by the one and only Davina Porter. LOVE her readings.

great period story

love this series. keeps you guessing until the end. I'm enjoying the characters threading between the books

A quick, good uncomplicated good read.

Would you listen to Resurrection Row again? Why?

No, because there are so many other books I wish to read.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Surprised and I like to be surprised with mysteries.

What does Davina Porter bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Emphasis, good diction, intonation of the different British accents.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Thomas comes in bone-tired and wet, and Charlotte has a towel in her hands waiting for him. They sit in companionship.

Murder most foul

This episode of the trials and tribulations of police officer Thomas Pit is rather humorous in a macabre way, of course. Corpses that refuse to stay buried. It's up to Thomas to find out why.

An interesting “Who done it”

A very good light hearted mystery. An interesting “ Who done it”.
Davina Porter, as always, did an excellent job of narrating the story
