Bedford Square

Charlotte and Thomas Pitt Mysteries, Book 19

De: Anne Perry

Narrado por: Jenny Sterlin

The freshly dead body sprawled on the Bedford Square doorstep of General Brandon Balantyne is an affront to every respectable sensibility. The general denies all knowledge of the shabbily dressed victim who has so rudely come to death outside his home, but Superintendent Thomas Pitt cannot believe him - for in the dead man’s pocket, Pitt finds a rare snuffbox that recently graced the general’s study. The superintendent must tread lightly, however, lest his investigation trigger a tragedy of immense proportions, ensnaring honorable men like flies in a web. Pitt’s clever wife, Charlotte, becomes his full partner in probing this masterpiece of evil, spawned by an amorality greater than they can imagine.

Insightful of the times

Anne Perry puts so much historical detail, and yet, so much heart into every book, and this one is no less.

The ending!!!

I know that in all of Anne Perry’s books, the truth isn’t revealed until the very last page…but I was not prepared for this one!!

very intercut plot

I may listen to it again because there were some things that seemed like I missed something I'm not sure if that was in the writing or in my listening. But it really keeps you guessing! And the ending is spectacular.

Another good story

This time there was little character development and more focus on the characters of the story. Still it was an enjoyable read.

Another stunner!

Didn't see that one coming! Oh Anne Perry does it again,such a good mystery series.

Narration is challenging, but good story

The narrator speeds through female characters and muddles through makes, which makes it impossible to set a good playback speed. TBS, the Pitt books are always interesting and engaging, so worth tolerating the narrator.

Excellent

Wonderful plot and characterizations as well as narration. Well worth the time and purchase. One of the best in the series.

unexpected ending

this story was, as always, a look into the world of the English upper class.

Very interesting, lots of twists

Love Thomas Pitt mysteries. There were so many characters it was a little hard to keep track. I look forward to listening to it again

Loved it! Such a great puzzle!

Anne Perry just twist you up with the puzzles she puts in her stories. They're fabulous! Jenny Sterling is that okay, but I like Divina Porter better as a narrator.
