De: Ann Granger

Narrado por: Gareth Armstrong, Julia Barrie

Ann Granger's seventh thrilling Victorian mystery featuring Inspector Ben Ross and his wife, Lizzie.

It is March 1870. London is in the grip of fog and ice. But Scotland Yard's Inspector Ben Ross has more than the weather to worry about when the body of a young woman is found in a dustbin at the back of a Piccadilly restaurant.

Ben must establish who the victim is before he can find out how and why she came to be there. His enquiries lead him first to a bootmaker in Salisbury and then to a landowner in Yorkshire. Meanwhile, Ben's wife, Lizzie, aided by their eagle-eyed maid, Bessie, is investigating the mystery of a girl who is apparently being kept a prisoner in her own home.

As Ben pursues an increasingly complex case, Lizzie reveals a vital piece of evidence that brings him one step closer to solving the crime....

Another fun mystery

interesting mystery brought to life by talented narrators!
I'm really enjoying this series by Ann Granger. Love the interaction between the regular cast members and the plots are always unique.

Ann Grainger does it again

Another cozy mystery with a well thought out plot and very believable characters. Kept me guessing until the last few chapters

Not bad

Starts out great; bogs down a bit around the funeral. As usual, though, Ann Granger spins a good story. The narrators do not match. One is soft and slow, the other is louder and fast. Each decent in their own right, but I have to adjust speed and volume at each changeover.
