wonderful listen

love it love the plot and also the narrator I like trying to figure out who is the guilty party this was excellent

Good Mystery Story

Story keeps you involved. When I finished this one, I had to listen to the 2nd book in the series. The narrator's inflections are just right and give you a great picture of Agnes.

Well Written

Good mystery that's well written. The narrator does a good job and has a nice voice.

Murder on Tyneside, very entertaining

Widowed Agnes Lockwood is spending a few days on Tyneside in Northeast England, catching up with her past. When expensive jewelry is stolen at the hotel, Chief Inspector Alan Johnson gets on the case.

After Alan recognizes Agnes as a friend from schooldays, they rekindle their friendship and Agnes bombards him with questions about the case. But after dinner one evening, they find a body lying on the roadside.

Agnes is always in the thick of things and finds herself targeted. Alan, distracted by Agnes, is having difficulty solving the cases. Thoroughly entertaining in how the story evolves and resolves.
