The Murder at Redmire Hall

A Yorkshire Murder Mystery, Book 3

De: J. R. Ellis

Narrado por: Michael Page

An impossible murder behind a locked door. Can DCI Oldroyd find the key to the mystery?

Lord Redmire’s gambling habit has placed him in serious debt. Determined to salvage his fortune by putting Redmire Hall on the map, the aristocrat performs an impossible locked-door illusion on live TV. But as the cameras roll, his spectacular trick goes fatally wrong....

Special guest DCI Jim Oldroyd has a front-row seat, but in all his years with the West Riding Police he’s never witnessed anything like this. He sees Redmire disappear—and then reappear, dead, with a knife in his back.

As Oldroyd and DS Stephanie Johnson soon discover, nearly everyone at the event had a reason to resent the eccentric lord. But how did the murderer get into the locked room—or out, for that matter?

When the only other person who knew the secret behind the illusion is brutally silenced, the case begins to look unsolvable. Because as Oldroyd and Johnson know, it’s not just a question of who did it and why—but how?

Delightful Mystery

This one had me guessing all the way through. I enjoyed the plot twists and the way the story delved into each character’s life and personality. Michael Page is a wonderful narrator always enjoy his varied accents.

Hercules Poirot Applauds!

Well done! A thrilling , well written murder mystery. Realistic characters, nice twists, dynamic conclusion. Dialogue and setting thoughtfully portrayed. Audio is captivating! Highly recommended!

Haven't read one of these closed room mysteries ..

for a long time. Not my cup of tea. The narrator's voice was irritating and the plot was cliche. But, at the end, when the murderer was revealed, the trick was not adequately explained. Not fair.
I've read other books by J.R. Ellis and enjoyed them so I won't give up on him yet.

Easy read; thoroughly complicated mystery.

Another fun read with baffling complexities, memorable characters, and a deliciously mysterious old house.

not bad at all....
