Death of an Airman

De: Christopher St John Sprigg

Narrado por: Peter Wickham

George Furnace, flight instructor at Baston Aero Club, dies instantly when his plane crashes into the English countryside. People who knew him are baffled - Furnace was a first-rate pilot, and the plane was in perfect condition - and the inquest records a verdict of death by misadventure.

An Australian visitor to the aero club, Edwin Marriott, Bishop of Cootamundra, suspects that the true story is more complicated. Could this be a dramatic suicide - or even murder? Together with Inspector Bray of Scotland Yard, the intrepid bishop must uncover a cunning criminal scheme.

So well written and performed

I will try and get my hands on the rest of the author's mysteries. So clever and entertaining. Perfect and well crafted. I sincerely hope more of them can be obtained through Audible. This felt more like a radio play as I believe there were multiple performers. Delightfully done. Can't recommend it enough.

Wonderful treasure

What a great novel! It is a riveting mystery with twists and turns. The characters are well developed. In the introduction the narrator talks that these books are very rare. This story is a wonderful treasure.

Fun classic

Lots of twists and turns and a fascinating setting from the early days of flying, written by an aviator who knew what he was talking about.
