Dorothy Martin's husband, a local police inspector, is out of town. On a trip to London for a doctor's appointment, Dorothy talks to a young man who, by the time the train reaches Victoria Station, is very dead. No one seems to think anything is amiss and the man who told her he was a doctor and would take care of everything seems to have done just that. The body has disappeared. Dorothy has a mystery on her hands and, with her husband in Zimbabwe, there's nothing to do but begin an investigation.

The year is 1920: Flying in the face of convention, legendary American adventuress Beryl Helliwell never fails to surprise and shock. The last thing her adoring public would expect is that she craves some peace and quiet. The humdrum hamlet of Walmsley Parva in the English countryside seems just the ticket. And, honestly, until America comes to its senses and repeals Prohibition, Beryl has no intention of returning stateside and subjecting herself to bathtub gin.

Before she can climb down to the spot, the villain is gone and the body has vanished.

death stalks country manor house
Dorothy and friends stay at a country house when a hurricane knocks out power, phone, wifi and cell service. So the situation mimics a classic 1930's mystery once the bodies start piling up. Well performed except for a couple of errors in regional American accents. This is my favorite of Dams' books and I highly recommend this audible book

Haven’t read a Dorothy Martin in years!
A joy to read or listen to! I so enjoy the love and joy expressed between Alan & Dorothy. Fun, traditional island house party in the mansion mystery, told in Dorothy’s own way. Love the literary references, too.

Too repetitive
It needed a good editing. There were too many characters and a weak plot. Book tried too hard to be a classic mystery but had no originality.
