Chandos Avenue

A Handful of Secrets, Book 5

De: Andrew Hixson

Narrado por: David Bufton

Chandos Avenue is a five-bedroomed house in one of the most sought after areas of Beodericsworth. Owned by Jason Barker, John Handful is slightly reluctant to answer a letter demanding his services by the Chairman of Beodericsworth Ornithological Society. Entering the strange world of bird-watching Handful is a little at a loss at his ability to help. He is apparently meant to consult on someone embezzling the society's funds and Jason Barker's reoccurring dream, of death, something not usually within his remit. The dream haunts Jason and only 24 hours after dismissing the bemused detective the dream becomes real. What ensues is a perplexing short story in which everyone is thrown into disarray and the mystery of secret lovers, flowers and a death that is not as it appears, slowly unfolds.

Great short crime story

The narrator did a great job. Great short story, crime mystery, character development for main character but not for other characters. That was fine because of how short the story was.

story was great and very well read

only bad part is that there isn't more. It was great and the reader was a great voice match for the story.

Bazinga

This was a good short mystery. The story was difficult to follow at times but the ending was good. The narrator was fine.

Disclaimer: I've been listening at 2x speed for so long anything else sounds like slow motion. My enjoyment of the narrator is based on my listening speed. I only leave 5 stars for books I've listened to multiple times. I'll update my review if I listen again.

I requested this book from the author, narrator, or publisher in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

Great short story

Reminiscent of the greats. If you like murder she wrote , Agatha Christy or Columbo you will enjoy the story. Maybe over a nice cup of tea.
