The Water Detective

A Berkeley Springs Mystery

De: Len Boswell

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Philadelphia Detective Eleanor Rigby Beaumont was having a hard time believing what she was seeing. When she looked up, she saw a medieval castle that just shouldn’t have been there. When she looked to her right, across the park, she saw a woman in a black Victorian evening gown, sitting quietly on a park bench, waving at her. And when she looked down, she saw a dead man in a little stone-lined pool the locals called George Washington’s Bathtub.

The man staring up at her, mouth agape, was the Water Master in the town’s International Water-Tasting Competition, a man who knew everything about water and how it should taste, a man universally respected—and hated.
She’d come to town to follow a lead on a famous cold case, the Redhead Murder, but now she was pushing that aside to help the local police. Suspects from many countries, all scheduled to leave the country in twenty-four hours, not to mention the locals and whoever lived in that mysterious castle, which was said to be haunted by a ghost named Jawbone.

Easy-peasy—not!

Classic mystery

This high quality mystery is told via highly polished dialogue, with minimal commentary ... a very interesting style of writing.

Good mystery and nice visit to Berkeley Springs

I enjoyed the story but the virtual voice can still break you out of the story. The voice has improved but it is not there yet. If this is becoming a series I will continue it.
