It's 1929, and Ticky Maltravers is the toast of London high society, adored by everyone - or so it seems, until somebody poisons him over dinner. Now it turns out that numerous people with secrets to hide had every reason to wish him dead. But which of them murdered him? For Freddy Pilkington-Soames, newspaper reporter and man-about-town, the question hits a little too close to home, thanks to an unfortunate drunken encounter with Ticky's corpse which he'd much rather the police didn't find out about - and thanks also to his exasperating mother Cynthia's seeming determination to get herself arrested by tampering with the evidence. But a pretty girl with big blue eyes is demanding his help in solving the mystery, so what can he do but agree? Now all he has to do is hide the wrong clues, find the right ones, and unmask the murderer before the police discover what's really been going on. That ought to be easy enough. If only people didn't keep getting killed....

Any additional comments?
I've read all of Clara Benson's books and I like them all. This audio version of the first Freddie book stands out. The narrative and the reader together are exceptional- reminiscent of PG Wodehouse.. I like mysteries to be light and funny and this fills the bill.Very enjoyable!

If you could sum up A Case of Blackmail in Belgravia in three words, what would they be?
Charming, fun, and clever with lots of interesting characters and a surprising depth. The narration is superb. If you are an anglophile and want to get away from the day to day, this trip into supposed upper class British life between the wars is first rate.What about Gethyn Edwards’s performance did you like?
Gethyn Edward's performance is so strong that my husband asked if there were two narrators, a woman and a man. Top notch.A trip back in a time that probably never was
