About this listen

London 1893, Gordon Wigfield, ein ehrbarer Goldschmied und Damenfreund wurde in seiner Werkstatt auf bestialische Weise ermordet. Chief Inspector Donald Sutherland Swanson nimmt die Ermittlungen auf. Doch es bleibt nicht bei einer Leiche. Die Nachforschungen führen Swanson schließlich in die höchsten Kreise der Gesellschaft. Welche Rolle spielen Oscar Wilde und sein Geliebter Lord Douglas? Und was weiß Arthur Conan Doyle? Die Karten werden neu gemischt als sich herausstellt, dass der in den Kellern des Londoner Bankhauses Parr am Cavendish Square aufbewahrte "Blaue Hope-Diamant" eine Imitation ist.

Editorial reviews

Verfluchte Schätze

Im London des Jahres 1893 geschehen grausame Verbrechen: Goldschmiede werden versilbert oder verschlucken sich an flüssigem Gold. Chief Inspector Donald Sutherland Swanson übernimmt die Ermittlungen, die ihn in die gehobenen Kreise der Gesellschaft führen: Wollen Oscar Wilde und Arthur Conan Doyle wirklich nur behilflich sein? Erst als sich herausstellt, dass der verfluchte Hope-Diamant eine Fälschung ist, scheint Swanson endlich eine Spur zu haben... Robert C. Marleys historischer Krimi lässt gekonnt die viktorianische Epoche wieder aufleben.

Great book & narration

Please note that this book is in German! I enjoyed this performance tremendously. The narrator is definitely one of my favorites, because his timing is well done (speed of narration and little pauses to give you time to think about the joke). He gives you time to appreciate the story line.

I also enjoyed the story, because it offered tongue in cheek humor with real life authors of the time. Of course, you should know something about Oscar Wilde and Arthur Conan Doyle in order to catch that humor and appreciate it. Victorian England is also part of the story, so knowing something about that history will lend itself to be entertained. I laughed a lot and was thoroughly engaged in the story on an ice cold wintry day--it was better than any Netflix binge I could have gotten into.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
