Death Undercover

Dora and Rex 1920s Mysteries, Book 3

By: Lynn Morrison

Narrated by: Pearl Hewitt

They were sent to unmask the spy in their midst. Instead, they'll have to identify his murderer.

England, 1922. After their adventures at Westminster, Dora and Rex depart for a quiet month in the Cotswolds. Or at least, that's what everyone thinks.

In truth, they're working on a new assignment—investigating rumors that a titled foreigner might be more than he appears. Rex invites the man to his family manor for a rollicking weekend of fun. In between bouts of lawn tennis and parlor games, he and Dora are to uncover the truth about the man's identity.

The servants barely have time to unpack everyone's case before the suspected spy is found with an antique dagger sticking from his back. With so few suspects, the case shouldn't be too hard to solve. But when every door leads to a dead end, Dora and Rex are forced to consider a most unpalatable option.

Were they wrong in thinking the man was a foreign spy? Or... could someone else have a powerful motive for murder?

Entertaining Read

Dora and her crew are back in this third installment of Lynn Morrison's Dora and Rex 1920s Mysteries. These characters continue to delight with their sense of humor, steadfast loyalty to each other and the Crown, and their varied skillsets. Dora, known by society as a notorious femme fatale, is a master of disguise and equally believable as a housemaid or a femme fatale, although neither are her true identity. Rex is developing nicely, especially after the disappointing self-doubt he displayed in the previous book, and this team of spies, including Inga, Harris, and others, is operating as a well oiled machine. Even so, Dora has decisions to make and people to convince. A family estate in the Cotswolds, complete with secret passages, a secluded setting, a mixed bag of guests, and an inconvenient murder make for an entertaining story. I am pleased that Boob 4 will release sooner than later.

As usual, Pearl Hewitt does an outstanding job voicing these characters.
