What a wonderful Series!

I ran out of Marion Chesney and M.C. Beaton books to read and was feeling a bit lost until I stumbled across Mrs. Jeffries. Listening to the characters book after book has made me form a bond to the series and the unlikely family that has formed between the characters.

I look forward visiting this time set in Victorian London that allows me to revel in history and indulge in ponder the nuances of human nature and societal norms as told through a removed era from my own for perspective. Adding in murder, gossip, and a cozy kitchen for tea and sleuthing is a welcomed bonus!

Mrs Jeffries speaks her mind

Emily Brightwell is as good as Agatha Christie! Love the staff! On to the next Mrs. Jeffries

I like the stories but...

This narrators high pitched voice for Wiggins and Betsy turns me off. Wiggins sounds like a little boy instead of a 20 something and Betsy sounds like a screaming shrew. the story on a whole is really good. the narration....meh.

One of the best!!

Absolutely love this series! The plots are well thought out and this one in particular really shows that!

Loved it!

Loved it! Great plot & character development. I always look forward to the next installment!

Other than a screech owl it was good

I wince whenever Wiggins has to talk. Why does he need that high pitched squeal when he’s well into his twenties. How I wish the books that I love didn’t make me cringe.

Always a Great Story, Poor voice choice by reader

I've listened to all the Mrs. Jeffries books. When Jennifer M Dixon became the reader they declined in listening quality. The voice for Wiggins is that of a screechy 12/13 year old boy, not a young man of 22 or so. Betsy's voice too has a screechy quality. Easy to change - please do.

Jennifer M Dixon narrator ruins narration

This narrator, who is a most excellent and long loved voice artist, has unfortunately chosen to represent youthful character voices with screeching, high pitched or whiney, ear piercing vocal range. Very unpleasant and unfortunate. Ruins this decent, long run cozy mystery series

Wiggins’ SCREECH!!

I don’t read many reviews and don’t write many.
I’ve listened to all of the Mrs. Jeffries series and sometimes I wonder how I’ve made it through all of this series.
BUT It would be so nice if Wiggins would get a grownup voice and sound like a man instead of something speaking in a falsetto voice. Am I the only person that’s noticed this?? Hasn’t ANYONE else noticed it??
When the series began it was confusing because Mrs. Gouge, Betsy, and Wiggins all sounded alike. I finally found out who was speaking at the end of the sentence.
Finally Mrs Gouge and Betsy have different nuances, so they can be told apart most of the time.
BUT CAN’T MS DIXON AND EMILY BRIGHTWELL DO SOMETHING ABOUT MAKING WIGGINS SOUND LIKE A MAN??
