Resumen del Editor

Lady Georgiana Rannoch is looking forward to her first ever turn as hostess for her very own house party when the festivities lead to murder....

Georgie, back home at her estate in Eynsleigh, impatiently awaits the birth of her baby. But she has plenty to occupy her: Her new chef, Pierre, has arrived from Paris, and Sir Hubert, who owns Eynsleigh, is back from his latest expedition. It's time for Georgie to throw her first house party to celebrate his return and show off her new chef. The dinner party is a smashing success. Sir Mortimer Mordred—famous author of creepy Gothic horror novels—is one of the guests. He recently purchased a nearby Elizabethan manor nearby because it has a famous poison garden. After the dinner, Sir Mortimer approaches Georgie and asks to borrow her new chef for his upcoming party, and Georgie and Darcy, her dashing husband, are invited!

The tour of the poison garden is fascinating, as is Sir Mortimer’s laboratory. Shockingly, just after the banquet several of the guests become sick. And one dies, apparently poisoned by berries from the garden. But how could this be when they all ate the same meal and the same delectable dessert? Georgie has to find the culprit to save her new chef and her own reputation—all before her bundle of joy arrives!

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

My Favorite Fluff

I enjoy the regular characters as well as the interactions with historical figures. The stories are light and easy - perfect for bedtime listening. I am sorry audiobook listeners lost Kathryn Kellgren. She died way too young. However, the new narrator for this series is growing on me. In fact, I think Jasmine Blackborow does a much better Darcy O’Mara.

Another worthy read

This installment of The Royal Spyness mystery series is one of the better ones I’ve listened to in a while. Although the plot was still a little bit predictable, it was engaging. I enjoyed the inclusion of real life celebrities who would have been popular in this time period. And the continued saga of Georgie’s personal life is always a pleasure.

Title quite catchy

This mystery was again well written and engrossing. However, I didn’t care for the performance. The voice was very irritating.

I just love all the character. The first book I was hooked! It's clean and funny, with perfect mystery.

I loved everything about this book. I have become a fan. Every book is so good. There isn't one of the books that I didn't like. These were just what I was looking for.

Fun!

Fun new outing with Georgie and Darcy. Main reason I wanted to write a review was to note that I think Jasmine Blackborow gets better with each book’s narration. Love all of her different accents and I never feel like she goes over the top or over-emotes. Worthwhile mystery with some surprise guests and some old favorites!

As always a delight!

I absolutely love Rhys Bowens books! I'm glad she found a narrator that could mimic Katherine Kellgren. I look forward to the next book in the series! I hope she writes more in the Molly Murphy Mysteries series as well!!!

Awesome Voice Work

As in the title, I was very impressed with the narrator’s voices. Very subtle but very distinctive.
