About this listen

It takes an organised mind to solve a well-planned crime …

The perfect new cosy crime novel for fans of Agatha Christie, Nita Prose and Richard Osman!

A Platinum book of the month!

'Mrs Beeton herself would be proud. A perfect recipe and devoured in one sitting between elevenses and afternoon tea.' Ian Moore

'A glorious new addition to the cosy crime genre with recipes which will leave you wanting more.' Melanie Cantor

'Highly recommended' Nuala McGovern, Woman's Hour

Alice Beeton never meant to wind up single and childless on the wrong side of fifty. Like her distant relative Mrs Beeton – yes, that Mrs Beeton – she had hoped to have her own spic-and-span household by now. In reality, she lives in an immaculate but dingy basement flat in a rather shabby block in Kensington with Agatha, her fiercely intelligent, if rather over-territorial, corgi-Jack Russell cross.

Now Alice runs the Good Household Management Agency, providing discreet domestic staff to extravagant townhouses and sprawling country piles. So when Camille Messent calls in urgent need of a new housekeeper, Miss Beeton sends out new hire Enya. She’s rather forward but she does come with impeccable references and is fluent en français.

But in the early hours of New Year’s Day, Alice is rudely awakened with the news that Enya has been found dead. As the intriguing, if somewhat scruffy, Detective Rigby struggles to drum up an adequate investigation and the wealthy family and their party guests close rank, Miss Beeton takes it upon herself to solve the crime…

Perfect for fans of:
