About this listen

A grand house in the country, three rival sisters, and a dead man in the garden… It sounds like a case for Lord Edgington.

On a trip to meet a family of well-known authors in the English countryside, Lord Edgington of Cranley Hall (along with his well-meaning grandson and their very loyal golden retriever) is faced with the puzzling case of an elderly man thrown from a window, a life-long rivalry, and a death foretold in mystery writer’s novel. Will the famous sleuth be able to solve the mystery before it's time for tea?

A Novel Way to Kill is a novella-length mystery from the “Lord Edgington Investigates…” series of 1920s whodunits. It is a standalone story and can be read at any point in the series but comes between the seventh and eighth novels chronologically.

The Lord Edgington Investigates... audiobooks are narrated by George Blagden from the TV shows, Vikings, Versailles, and the Oscar-winning film of Les Miserables.

A fun novella

A quick plot that I thought I'd know the ending to. But he surprised me. Great narrator.

My least favorite so far…

I get that there is probably more to come with this particular story & characters. Even so, there is just not a lot of character development/exploration and the mystery was pretty easy to figure out. Again, maybe that was by design but it still left me underwhelmed. There are a lot of potential foreshadows for what I’m assuming is an upcoming book, so that could be interesting, but for now…eh.
P.S. Narrator brilliant as always!
