Trouble in the Brasses

Madoc and Janet Rhys Mysteries Series, Book 4

By: Charlotte MacLeod

Narrated by: William Dufris

A Canadian Mountie investigates a murder among musicians in this mystery by the Edgar Award-nominated author of the Peter Shandy series.

Although he is a decorated officer of the Mounted Police, Madoc Rhys' tin ear has long been an embarrassment to his musically fixated family. But when his father's orchestra needs a policeman, the Mountie gets a chance to make daddy proud.

It began as pranks among the brass instruments, but something is rotten inside the Wagstaffe Symphony, and is about to graduate to something criminal. Called in to look into the tensions within the group, Madoc arrives just in time to see the French horn player keel over. The death appears natural, and the orchestra boards the plane to its next engagement. But when a storm forces them to make an emergency landing and take shelter in an eerie old lodge, the extent of the danger becomes clear. Madoc may never understand music, but he has a good ear for murder, and is about to show off his chops.

great

I have loved this author's books for years. I really think the audio books are wonderful. I hope the final book in this series is made into an audible book soon. The Wrong Rite

Better than reading a beloved book.

This narration of a beloved book has brought new life to an old half forgotten story. The narrator’s skill has brought depth to characters I thought I remembered clearly. If you know this book you will love this audible book, and if you have somehow missed this gem, be prepared to be enthralled.

Fun mystery series

This is a fun mystery series for light reading/listening. It’s not for those looking for intense intrigue or suspense. Just plain fun and amusement.
