Acerca de esta escucha
Sir John Waveney has inherited Waveney Hall. A veteran of the Great War himself, his inheritance has come because of the deaths in action of his two distant cousins, leaving him as the next male heir. He hopes to make the acquaintance of his two remaining cousins, Lady Jenifer Marr and Anne Belinda.
But Lady Marr proves very vague about her twin sister's whereabouts. Is she traveling with a friend or (as has been intimated) has she been incarcerated in a mental institution? No one seems to actually know, and several people seem bent on frustrating John's attempts to find her. Discovering that Anne Belinda missed her sister's wedding a year ago and was shortly after cut out of her dying father's will gives him even greater cause for concern. Where is she and what is she living on?
John's sense of responsibility drives him on and Patricia Wentworth's plot, as ever, is full of mystery, intrigue, and romance.

What first appears as a simple break-in quickly spirals into a mystery of contested land grabs for fishing between farmers, made all the more enticing to MacDonald when a body is then found in the river.

Perfect for fans of The Keeper of Lost Things and The Villa in Italy. Blue lives a charmed life. From her family's townhouse in Richmond, she lives a life of luxury and couldn't want for anything - well, on the surface at least. Then, on the night of her 21st birthday, her father makes a startling toast: he will give his daughter's hand to whichever man can capture her heart best in the form of a love letter. But Blue has other ideas, and, unwilling to play at her father's bewildering games, she sets out on her own path to find her own destiny....

Polly has two sets of memories.... One is normal: school, home, friends. The other, stranger memories begin nine years ago, when she was 10 and gate-crashed an odd funeral in the mansion near her grandmother's house. Polly's just beginning to recall the sometimes marvelous, sometimes frightening adventures she embarked on with Tom Lynn after that. And then she did something terrible, and everything changed. But what did she do? Why can't she remember? Polly must uncover the secret, or her true love - and perhaps Polly herself - will be lost.

Historia
Sharply observant and wickedly funny, E.F. Benson's six Mapp and Lucia novels satirize the upper-middle-class social climbers in 1920s and '30s rural England. Games of bridge and cups of tea fuel hilarious gossip and vindictive plots a-plenty. It is a masterfully sustained spotlight on the minutiae of village life - a clever and ultimately heart-warming series that seems tailor-made for audio. Volume 1 contains the first three books.

Why cut any of it?
fFirst, the reading is excellent. I love Anne Hancock's performance. But why were Sir John's little songs cut out? Chapter 26 for example, the text leads into him singing about Caractacus Jones. in the audio the lead-in sentence is omitted as is the song. Why? I want the whole book!

More romance than mystery, but good
This is another early 20th century Patricia Wentworth novel read very well by Anne Hancock. It's a mystery and a romance, and was great!
Warning: This isn't a Miss Silver novel.

Great narration of a terrific period piece
This is one of my favorite non-Miss Silver books by Patricia Wentworth, particularly the obstinate hero. The narrator does an excellent job.

Disappointed
Read a review and thought I’d try this Wentworth book since I enjoy many of the Miss Silver mysteries. Waste of time- the plot is dumb, the characters implausible, could easily foretell the plot and the ending.….reminds me of a Nancy Drew or Trixie Belden plot.
Very sorry the five star review persuaded me to buy this audio book. The narrator was fine but that’s the only positive element of the audio book.
