About this listen

Murder, Mystery and a dog of distinction

Book 8 in the Heathcliff Lennox series.

Major Heathcliff Lennox is called in, along with ex Detective Inspector Swift, to help the police investigate a macabre death. The dead man is Lord De Ruyter, a man inextricably linked to the notorious Birdcage Murders.

Nothing is as it appears, witnesses to De Ruyter's murder are not the strangers they purport to be, everyone present had a reason to be there and it all relates to the Birdcage Murders.

Major Heathcliff Lennox—ex WW1 war pilot, 6' 3", tousled dark blond hair, age around 30—named after the hero of Wuthering Heights by his romantically minded mother—much to his great annoyance.

Absolutely loved the story line! So happy Lennox is staying true to who he is even after his marriage - many times characters change but he is still his awkward self around attractive women.Glad Mr. Fog and Tubbs made the trip!
I can’t say enough how I enjoy Sam Dewhurst-Phillips narration, he brings all the characters to life, cannot wait for the next adventure.

Another excellent Major Lennox and Swift adventure

I was not disappointed. The story kept me guessing to almost the end. And Sam Dewhurst-Phillips is hands down the best narrator I have ever listened to. Anxiously waiting for the next one.

Another great mystery

Another outstanding effort in the Heathcliff Lennox series! entertaining, complex enough to hold your attention, and at the end, a touch of humor and irony. Be sure to look for both.

Complex with a touch of both humor & irony.

I am a great fan of this series. The plots are interesting and differ greatly, the characters are charming with their individual strengths and weaknesses, but her ability to write these stories with each of these complicated people challenged and aided by their own issues overlayed upon the relationships between each other is quite good. Plus a young man sleuthing with a pup and kitten is so sweet!

Another winner

Although we liked the book, it has a lot of minutiae and needs shortening

Catchy and interesting twists in the plot
