Holiday Heist at Dunhaven Castle

Every mystery I've read by Nellie H. Steele has been extremely well done! I love reading about the time travel and Cate and Jack meeting their previous ancestors. Their biggest concern is that whatever they do or say will not drastically change history. This audiobook was done by Liz Gentle, Liz is new to my listening repertoire, but is absolutely fantastic! 😍 Easy to recommend this author, this series, and the audiobooks done for this series!

Another great time travel mystery.

This is a fun series. Lady Kate and Jack’s adventures into the past, dressing in period costumes and meeting relatives is always interesting. The only problem I had with book three is the change in narrator. Her accents were perfect however her voice sounded like an older woman than what I picture Kate to be. I almost didn’t want to finish but as I became used to the change I kept going. The story was great so it was a delight to listen to the end.

Great storyline

I do have to say that I preferred the reader of the first 2 books better than this one. Cate sounds rather old and cynical with not nearly as much personality in her voice

Bored

I bought this & the next one because I enjoyed the first book, but was disappointed with the tracking in & out with the dogs, Mrs Campbell, meals….gave up after the first trip to 1925.

Narrator

Cute story following the series and I prefer the previous narrator on the first two books. This new narrator was not the best choice, in my opinion. I say this because the main character is in her late 20s to early 30s and the narrator is clearly much older she would be more suited to narrate the cook or the older historian. Also, this narrator doesn’t change her voices in depth or sound or anything when she is narrating a younger character, an older character, a male or female….I sometimes have a difficult time keeping up as to which character is “talking” because she doesn’t change her voice. I have to admit the accent is perfect. Previous on
