February 1913. Lady Hardcastle and her diminutive but brave lady’s maid, Flo, have been invited by their friend JB McIntyre to spend the weekend at his recently renovated Tudor fort on a remote island off the Devonshire coast. But the holiday quickly turns sinister when first a number of valuable jewels go missing—and then a fellow guest is murdered with a most unusual weapon.

Asked by JB to investigate, the stakes are raised for the sleuthing duo when a violent storm traps the group on the island and cuts them off from help. Is the murderer in their midst? With everyone claiming to have an alibi—but each also having a skeleton in their closet—can Lady Hardcastle and Flo unravel this complex web of secrets and deception before the killer strikes again?

As usual a great yarn brilliantly performed. I love these characters, stories and performances. I can’t wait for the next one.

Never disappoints

Whilst this was enjoyable, it was all a little.... well silly. Flo making silly mistakes or at least not being as subtle as she should be. And both Lady H and Flo taking things at face value and believing what they are told. And the plot was in the vein of Agatha Christie's "And then there were none", So it was entertaining but not as good as previous books.

Not as good

Emily and Flo do it again. Murder and mayhem in Devon. Fabulously told and brought to life as always by EK. Quite utterly the best entertaining listen for a wet and windy June.

Just perfect

Yet another great Lady Hardcastle book from TE Kinsey, brilliantly narrated by Elizabeth Knowelden. Looking forward to the next one.
