Murder at Mullings

The Florence Norris Mysteries, Book 1

By: Dorothy Cannell

Narrated by: Helen Duff

In its three-hundred-year history, there has never once been a scandal at Mullings, ancestral home of the decent but dull Stodmarsh family—until, that is, Edward Stodmarsh makes an ill-advised second marriage to the scheming Regina Stapleton, who insists on bringing her family's “ornamental hermit” to live on the estate.

Suddenly everyone wants to visit Mullings to glimpse this mysterious figure. Strange but harmless, thinks Florence Norris, the family's longstanding housekeeper. But events take a sinister turn with the arrival of sudden, violent death—and suddenly the hermit doesn't seem so harmless after all…

boring

deadly boring. Hours in still no mystery! And then when someone dies, we hardly care.

A wonderful tale!

I love this author and have quite a few of her books physical and paper editions.
But this book still managed to very pleasantly surprise me!
Murder at Mullings is full of strong characters, a wonderful story line, lovely historical details and sparkling humor.
It is a pleasure to listen to.
A wonderful narrator does did a superb job.
I laughed and cried with the characters and will definitely get the next book in the series.
