About this listen

Mirabelle Daws travelled all the way from Australia to Sheridan Square to visit her sister - only to die in the middle of a locked garden. All the residents of Sheridan Square have a key to the garden - but no-one seemed to know that Mirabelle was planning to arrive.

So the question facing Mrs. Jeffries and Inspector Witherspoon is: who wanted to make sure that Mirabelle's visit was very, very short-lived?

Critic reviews

"It's murder most English all the way!" (The Literary Times)

"Fascinating murder mystery...wit and style...a winning series. Mrs. Jeffries is the Miss Marple of Victorian Mystery." (The Paperback Forum)

All stars
Most relevant  
Good idea for a series. Plots and character personae not bad. Narrator does decent job ans has pleasant timbre.
BUT
Sometimes Narrator confuses voice of stuffy English butler and his " hill-billy" American employer.
AND
Writing has anachronisms/disjoint...often to detriment of character portrayals

Dialogue, ostensibly Victorian English, full of modern American anachronism
