Ngaio Marsh
The London season has begun. But while debutantes and chaperones plan their luncheons and balls a deadly blackmailer is stalking the highest echelons of society.
Naturally, it falls to charming, aloof Detective Inspector Roderick Alleyn - son of Lady Alleyn - to investigate the case. He has already planted his close friend Lord Robert at the scene. But someone else got to him first....
Death in a White Tie was first published in 1938 and is perhaps the finest of Marsh's 1930s novels - elegantly constructed, witty and marvellously entertaining.
Please note: This is a vintage recording. The audio quality may not be up to modern day standards.

Any additional comments?
It sounded as though there were two different readers for this audiobook, but perhaps the audio was simply poor quality? It was confusing to hear seemingly two different male readers (one with a lower voice, one with a higher voice) portraying the characters.Different readers, or poor sound quality?
