Murder at the Royal Observatory

A Sherlock Holmes and Lucy James Mystery

By: Anna Elliott, Charles Veley

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Mysteries, Martians, and Men in Black!

Outside Greenwich’s Royal Observatory, an astronomer’s assistant is found dead—his body sprawled beneath the stars. Witnesses whisper of black smoke and a ghostly green flash, sparking rumors of a Martian invasion straight out of The War of the Worlds. But for Sherlock Holmes and Lucy James, the culprit isn’t from outer space—it’s all too human.

The clues are scattered like stardust. Lucy finds a ransacked home and missing papers. Flynn tails a strange van packed with astronomical oddities. Holmes links the murder to an anarchist bombing at the Observatory years earlier. Meanwhile, the Astronomer Royal frets over his posh dinner party, oblivious to the danger brewing around him. But when Lucy is abducted by mysterious men in black, the Baker Street team must act fast to crack the case before the stars align for disaster.

Blending suspense, humor, and a touch of the cosmic, Murder at the Royal Observatory is a dazzling mix of deduction, danger, and Victorian flair. Perfect for fans of Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and adventures that are out of this world!

Great story-disappointing narration by Inanimate Voice

Enjoyed the clever mystery but the “Virtual Voice” cannot measure up to a human’s inflection and ability to sounds like the various characters. Wish Audible would use only humans!!

Bad Narration

The virtual voice could not handle the various British accents used in the story. It was just terrible.
