Too much standing on Ceremony....

Revisado: 11-17-24

Unfortunately, the most interesting character is the chauffeur, BUT NOT enough to keep me interested. Disappointed too, as I see there are many books in the series and was looking forward to tucking in. Just can't take all the pomp and circumstance.

Really like the story, but...

Revisado: 06-22-24

An excellent story - any time I can't figure out the murderer in 5 minutes is a WIN.

Needs a better narrator - I make a living listening to voices, and this narrator needs a bit of work - not enough timbre differentiation in her "voices".

Main character also needs a bit of work - I was amazed to find a 42-year-old woman did not know what a compost pile was, and it pulled me right out of the story.

I just LOVE these stories! Definitely recommend!

Just love, love, LOVE these stories!

The narration is absolutely a dream - she does EVERY character fantastically well. I'm not sure I would get all the nuances if I didn't hear them in the narrator's voice, she really does these characters justice, well done Ms. Knowelden. And WELL DONE, Mr.Kinsey; his writing is so witty, charming, it's like taking the ultimate relaxing vacation for a few hours!

As always, I enjoyed the tidbits of history in this one as well.

Needs work, but for a first try...

Revisado: 05-31-24

The narrator needs lessons in how to differentiate characters. She just reads the story straight and though she has a wonderful voice, it is somewhat hard to follow which character is which.

The story itself it okay; the characters are rather irritating at first and hard to get behind or identify with though they do grow throughout the story. Not sure I'll give another one a go, but I might. The murderer was quite obvious, so that would be a real deal breaker if the murderer is that obvious in the other stories.

EXCELLENT characters and narration

Revisado: 05-22-24

Love these stories, this is my third one, and the narrator is a PERFORMER. She does the voices perfectly; not sure I would have caught all the nuances just reading the story.

These two characters, Lady Emily Hardcastle and Florence Armstrong, remind me of two incredibly special women in my life growing up, my mother and her best friend, who were also employer and employee though you'd never have known that. They had the same kind of relationship as these two characters. I ADORED them, and I ADORE these two characters. Although I did know the murderer right away, I did really enjoy the interactions of the characters and look forward to listening to more.

GREAT ENTERTAINMENT!

Who knew what we know could be so amazingly interesting? Excellent story even though nonfiction, Mr. Winchester MAKES it a story.

Unusual manner of murder

The characters and performance are excellent. The vehicle used for murder is really good.

Not as good as

Revisado: 03-17-24

Although the pathway for the murderer was EXCELLENT, there wasn't a side plot that was interesting...as there was in Mystery at Watermeade Manor, my favorite so far.
