About this listen

Bea Abbot and her husband have been running a highly successful domestic agency for many years, but when he falls ill and dies, she is pressured by her MP son and novelist daughter to retire. Bea is so tired from the long years of nursing her husband that all she wants is peace and quiet, and to have her pretty early Victorian house in Kensington, London, all to herself. What she gets is a couple of young lodgers with troubled backgrounds and an old friend banging on her door, asking for help. What she gets is murder!©2007 Veronica Heley (P)2007 Soundings Detective Espionage Fiction Sea Adventures Suspense Women Sleuths Women's Fiction Adventure Mystery

Dated attitudes but decent story.

You can tell this book was published years ago by some of the comments and attitudes expressed which, I’ll admit, had me wincing once or twice. That said, the characters are fun and the storyline was interesting. I could do without the religious stuff personally, but it was minimal.

I’ve downloaded book two so I’ll see how that goes!

Mostly Enjoyable

Story moved along, but it could have used some good editing down in various areas.
