Liked her discussion about women having a voice in all things and not just women’s’ and children’s’ matters. Now I understand why my Mother, who was a lawyer, always lowered her voice when making a business call.

The depth and breadth of McCullough’s knowledge of US history was. He writes about famous and not so famous individuals and firmly places them in their times. They are described “warts and all”. Such fun to read.

Enjoyed the mix of outsiders and incomers on remote Scottish island. As much as I like birds, it was good to have a different focus.

I particularly liked this one but then I am an art historian. Wish that I could move to 3 Pines! Love it when history is brought into the story

Enjoy the use of real history and the small flourishes of fancy and romance. Also, I like the slow progress through time of this series and the feminist emphasis.

What did you love best about A Fine Summer's Day?

Gives you the background you need to fully understand Inspector Routledge and Jean and Pre-War Britain

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Fine Summer's Day?

When Routlege is chasing the suspect through the villages and he misses him

Have you listened to any of Steven Crossley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

All good and believable and unobtrusive.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extreme reaction

Any additional comments?

I have learned how pacifists were treated during and before WW I and have been scandalized by that treatment. This fits well with Downton Abbey.
