About this listen

When a nobleman's mistress is gunned down on the steps of the Covent Garden opera house, brilliant adventurer Atlas Catesby discovers a sinister family connection that compels him to investigate.

London, 1815. Amateur sleuth Atlas Catesby is about to discover the dark side of the bright lights. His long-awaited night at the opera with Lady Lilliana ends abruptly when a notorious courtesan is shot to death in Covent Garden.

The infamous victim was the mistress of the powerful Marquess of Vessey. Atlas believes that the marquess - his former brother in law - is responsible for the long-ago death of Atlas' sister, Phoebe. Atlas seizes the opportunity to potentially avenge his sister's death. But his inquiry is complicated when Phoebe's grown son implores Atlas to help prove Vessey's innocence.

Plunging into the cutthroat backstage life of the theater community, the adventurer and the noblewoman soon discover that ruthless professional rivalries can escalate into violence, setting the stage for death in Murder at the Opera, D. M. Quincy's third riveting Atlas Catesby mystery set in Regency England.

Excellent series

Final chapter - please read them in order or you’ll miss the nuance of the characters.

Another good mystery

So glad I gave this author another chance. The mystery was a good one, even if it was a bit predictable. I’m also very glad there was not a lot of the tiresome “unworthy” sub-plot going on. If there is another Atlas mystery I beg the author not to fill it with more tiresome unrequited love/predictability of a dead spouse for the H’s friend.

Excellent production and story

Story is brought to life with the varying voices for the characters. Intriguing and well-developed mystery and love story. Sad this is the last in the series.

Excellent

After listening to the first excellent book in this series, I dove right in and binged the next two. Well constructed mystery with well-developed, well-written characters and a great voice performance. I just wish there were more books in the series

Satisfying series

I felt that this series got better with each of the 3 books. The quality of the narration lifts the story from “pretty good” to “really engaging.” The narrator really brings the characters to life.

A-Ha!

A wonderful series with many complex characters. It gets a little confusing trying to sort the legitimates from the by-blows . And we think blended families are complex.
