Murder on the Golden Arrow

Kitty Worthington Mysteries Series, Book 1

By: Magda Alexander

Narrated by: Kim Bretton

What's a bright young lady to do when her brother becomes the main suspect in a murder? Why, solve the case of course.

England. 1923. After a year away at finishing school where she learned etiquette, deportment, and the difference between a fish fork and a salad one, Kitty Worthington is eager to return home. But minutes after she and her brother Ned board the Golden Arrow, the unthinkable happens. A woman with a mysterious connection to her brother is poisoned, and the murderer can only be someone aboard the train.

When Scotland Yard hones on Ned as the main suspect, Kitty sets out to investigate. Not an easy thing to do while juggling the demands of her debut season and a mother intent on finding a suitable, aristocratic husband for her.

With the aid of her maid, two noble beaus, and a flatulent Basset Hound named Sir Winston, Kitty treads a fearless path through the glamorous world of high society and London's dark underbelly to find the murderer. For if she fails, the insufferable Inspector Crawford will most surely hang a noose around her brother's neck.

Perfect Cozy Mystery

I truly enjoyed this cozy mystery. I was looking for some thing a little light and fun and this hit the spot. Story was well put together!
I will have to say that the narration was excellent, however, just a tad to exuberant for me. That isn’t a complaint it almost didn’t fit the bill, but it’s such a minuscule adjustment that I would make that I do feel petty even mentioning it…. But here I am, being petty! 😂 If the narrator is reading this, you are outstanding, and it’s me not you.
Buying the next book now and can’t wait to listen!

Cozy mystery

I very fun story. Characters were lovely & the story enjoyable. It was a great summer listen.

Well-written cozy

Didn’t like the inflection the reader gave the heroine throughout the entire story. Started to grate on my nerves.

Fun, light cozy

The narrator took some getting used to. She did good voices of the other characters but she was always just so darned excited when reading the protagonist. I just wanted her to take a breath and relax a bit. Please note, i got this book for free, so I hung in until the end and was glad I did.

The descriptions

enjoyed the description of English life and period enlightenment. This was a book that would play to a ladies read. To much things described of ladies ware. Having said that a good mystery.
