Love this series

Characters come to life in settings of their times. It makes you part of the story.

Love all her books!

The narrator is awesome and acts out the characters to perfection! I'm in the process of listening to all her Mrs. Jefferies books in order. They're great!

Another wonderful Mres. Jeffries mystery

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I highly recommend this series. The story is cute and the characters are so much fun. Lindy Nettleton does a great job narrating flowing in and out of the different voices. She has the perfect voice for this series.

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

She is Mrs. Jefferies and the other characters.

Any additional comments?

I was so excited to see this book pop up and can't wait for the next. I never do figure out who did it.

A worthy successor to Agatha Christie

Excellent narrator. Definitely caught the spirit of the late Victorian age. Loved the concentration on life "below stairs."

Fun!! Mrs. Jeffries meets the game Clue!

Loved it! Lots of red herrings, rooms in a mansion (library, hall, ballroom, kitchen...), lots of motives, lots of characters from many walks of life like Mrs. Greenwood and Mrs. Stanwick (who in the opening chapter is 'overdressed' in a deep red (scarlet? ) dress. Highly recommend!

Jubilee Vs Murder

Thoroughly enjoyable murder mystery! Was fun following inspectors intrepid staff uncover the murderer in the midst of Queen Victoria's Jubilee. Loved it!
