    Description

    November 1911. Lady Emily Hardcastle is celebrating her birthday by seeing a play at the Duke’s Theatre in Bristol with her maid and confidante, the inimitable Flo. Act One is a triumph. Then Act Two opens with a body on stage—a real one. One of the cast has been brutally murdered during the interval.

    When other matters get in the way of Inspector Sunderland overseeing the case himself, he asks the ever-resourceful Lady H to keep a watchful eye on the suspects—and his police colleagues. Rustling up some cunning disguises of their own, she and Flo are soon in deep cover among the cast and crew, pulling back the curtain on some shocking secrets and rivalries…

    The problem is, everyone seems to have a motive, and everyone seems to have an alibi…In this locked-room mystery in which nothing is as it seems, the amateur sleuths need to put on the performances of their lives if they’re to stand a chance of shining a spotlight on the truth…

    Commentaires

    “Elizabeth Knowelden zestfully presents Bristol, England, in 1911.… Knowelden impressively conveys the nasty infighting of the cast, locals and gentry, and endless descriptions of mouthwatering food.… The lively banter, along with countless motives and alibis, keeps listeners guessing—often incorrectly. Historical trivia and occasional laugh-out-loud moments add to the fun, making audio a must.”AudioFile Magazine

    Another wonderful installment!

    I think this was the best book yet! This is my favorite lil cozy mystery series of all as well. Entertaining and heartwarming all at once. Of course by this point we've all gotten to know and love our dynamic duo quite intimately as well as having a wider cast of friends involved which adds to the fun. The setting of the theater was a nice touch as well. I also really enjoyed the addition of Flo's sister to the mix. Nice stress free entertainment as always. Also I'd be remiss if i didn't give a nod to the wonderful Elizabeth Knowelden for her amazing performance (per usual). She brings the story to life like no other could! Cant wait for the next one!

    Another smash hit!

    TE Kinsey has written a another absolutely delightful mystery, with our two favorite sleuths: the indomitable Lady H and and her feisty maid/friend, Florence Armstrong. Fans of the series will find many favorite foibles on display, such as Lady H using the wrong name so that Flo has to correct her, as Lady H gives her a dig for falling for her “mistake”. We see a lot of old favorite characters and also get to know Flo’s twin sister. The mystery was cleverly created and well-hidden from the reader. It wasn’t until the end that I could look back at the clues and put them together. All in all, a perfectly wonderful reading/listening experience!! (Kudos again to the reader! She’s brilliant!)

    Absolutely love this series

    It’s a birthday outing to the theater for Lady Hardcastle with her maid and confidante Flo. Act Two begins with a murdered man on stage and the game is afoot as they say.

    Flo’s twin Gwen comes for a visit and they all begin an investigation for Inspector Sunderland. Absolutely wonderful characters, stories and history. Marvelous narration.

    Another wonderful book

    I love these books. The devoted friendship between Flo and Lady Hardcastle is witty, easy, and despite their detective work and occasional shenanigans, feels like the female friendships I have.
    Elizabeth Knowlton is one of my all-time favorite narrators. She’s brilliant.
    I only wish I could watch one of Lady Hardcastle’s stop motion films. She’s always working on them in the greenhouse and I’m pretty sure they’d be hilarious.

    Another Wonderful Lady Hardcastle Story!

    I just love these stories with Lady Hardcastle and her “tiny servant” sidekick. The combination of this author and this narrator brings each story to life so well. I have listened to the previous ones several times each over the years, and I will do the same with this one. When I’m in the mood for a lighthearted sleuth story, with a good plot, presented by an excellent narrator, this is my main series.
