Murder on the Marmora

Ocean Liner, Book 5

By: Edward Marston

Narrated by: James Langton

Egypt, 1908. George Dillman and Genevieve Masefield, used to the grand opulence of the Cunard cruise line, are at first disappointed with the Marmora, a small, unimpressive ship owned by the P&O shipping line. Employed by P&O to be the ship’s detectives, Dillman and Masefield expect to encounter the usual assortment of petty thieves and confidence tricksters.

But this cruise is certain to be unique as the Duke and Duchess of Fife and their children are aboard and the detectives will provide security for the royals. And when a dead body turns up, the voyage proves to be one to remember. Keeping the demise of the poor victim a secret on such a small ship is tough enough but suspects abound, meaning Dillman and Masefield have their work cut out for them.

Previously published under the name Conrad Allen, the Ocean Liner series casts off for a new generation of fans.

Critic reviews

"Edward Marston is a master of his craft." (Daily Mail)

Great story & really like the narrator’s voice.

It was a really good story. Lots of twists & turns. Great narration from James Langton. Would recommend these audible books from Edward Marston.

Great

I am so enjoying this series. Ginny’s past catches up with her and Dillman has to take action. Another involved mystery with lots of red herrings. On to the next. Such excellent narration
