Fountain Inn

Classic Canning, Book 7

By: Victor Canning

Narrated by: John Higgins

What’s going on behind the doors of Fountain Inn?

When her employer suddenly disappears, young Grace Kirkstall finds herself accepting a new job at a new company in the same building - an oasis of tranquility off the streets of London.

Ben and Helen Brown’s start-up company’s pitch is that, for a small consideration, they will help people out of their major and minor fixes. Their first big commission initiates Ben into the gentle art of housebreaking, and Helen into the mysteries of the Society for Progressive Rehabilitation....

But for Grace, it will plunge her into more danger than she could ever have imagined.

This leisurely, beautifully observed thriller marked Victor Canning’s entrée into crime fiction, and rewards with a thrilling finale - sure to delight fans of Agatha Christie’s Tommy and Tuppence.

Love John Higgins Voice

In the tragedy of my personal life, John Higgins voice telling the skillfully written detective story has given me the sense of stability and comfort. Hope to listen to more books read by him.
