The Scent of Danger

The Ursula Blanchard Mysteries, Book 18

De: Fiona Buckley

Narrado por: Helen Lloyd

Ursula’s visit to her Devon relatives leads to murder, mayhem, and a possible plot to free Mary, Queen of Scots in the latest Ursula Blanchard Tudor mystery.

February, 1586. When the queen’s spymaster, Sir Francis Walsingham, learns that Ursula is to visit her relatives in Devon, he asks her to find out what has happened to two of his local agents, who have been strangely silent recently. On arrival in the small Devon village of Zeal Aquatio, Ursula discovers that both spies in question have met with mysterious - and fatal - accidents. Or is there more to it than that?

What did the two spies find out that got them killed? Is there any truth to the rumors that King Philip of Spain, in league with the queen’s cousin, Mary Stuart, intends to launch an invasion from the south coast? As Ursula pursues her investigations, it becomes clear that someone in Zeal Aquatio is determined to stop her finding out the truth...whatever it takes.

We need more Ursula Blanchard on Audible!

I really enjoy the Ursula Blanchard series, I just wish there were more of them recorded as audiobooks.

Ursula Rides Again!

I was thrilled to find Blackstone Audio teamed with the wonderful Helen Lloyd to record more Fiona Buckley stories. Set in the moors of the West Country, Ursula sets to work being an astute diplomat. I loved the story; I love Helen Lloyd, but what a terrible, at times, editing job by Blackstone Audio. I hope Blackstone Audio publishes the remaining Ursula series, and I hope they edit more carefully.
