An absolutely gripping cozy murder mystery

Move over Miss Marple, there’s a new sleuth in town! Meet Eleanor Swift: distinguished adventurer, dog lover, dignified lady…daring detective?

England, 1920. Eleanor Swift has spent the last few years travelling the world: taking tea in China, tasting alligators in Peru, escaping bandits in Persia and she has just arrived in England after a chaotic 45-day flight from South Africa. Chipstone is about the sleepiest town you could have the misfortune to meet. And to add to these indignities - she’s now a Lady.

Lady Eleanor, as she would prefer not to be known, reluctantly returns to her uncle’s home, Henley Hall. Now Lord Henley is gone, she is the owner of the cold and musty manor. What’s a girl to do? Well, befriend the household dog, Gladstone, for a start, and head straight out for a walk in the English countryside, even though a storm is brewing....

But then, from the edge of a quarry, through the driving rain, Eleanor is shocked to see a man shot and killed in the distance. Before she can climb down to the spot, the villain is gone and the body has vanished. With no victim and the local police convinced she’s stirring up trouble, Eleanor vows to solve this affair by herself. And when her brakes are mysteriously cut, one thing seems sure: someone in this quiet country town has Lady Eleanor Swift in their murderous sights....

If you enjoy witty dialogue, glamorous intrigue, and the very best of Golden Age mysteries, then you will adore Verity Bright’s whodunit, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, T E Kinsey, and Downton Abbey!

I wanted to love this, but sadly the lead character is positively unbearable - and so sucked the air right out from under the supporting characters and even the plot.

A cute little murder mystery made absolutely delightful by the narrator. The likeable, good-natured characters provided a fun little escape. I look forward to listening to more.

Cute and entertaining story

This book was so charming. I loved the character development and the plot was engaging. I loved that I could listen while cleaning or cooking and not worry if one of my kids walked in. There is nothing salacious or untoward. I was thrilled to see there was another book in the series. Well done by author and narrator!

Simply delightful!

I would like to start by saying I am writing this review after already being into the series (like 11 books in). I love this series! It’s cute, it’s cozy, it’s funny. My husband even listens to this series with me. He likes the butler.

This is the first book and you are being introduced to Lady Swift who isn’t your average upper class bred woman. She’s learning as she goes. This is probably what I would consider “slow to start” since it’s the first book and an introduction to the series.

Verity Bright is a wizard with trying to keep us guessing at who the villains are and keeping us giggling at the antics of Lady Swift and her ever awesome butler.

I can’t wait to listen to the newest addition in the series.

This is just the start!

This light bit of British mystery writing was a fun and fine audio romp. The characters are most endearing and the excellent narration/voices held my attention the entire time. Definitely worth a listen for British mystery fans!👍
