Publisher's summary

The adventures of the Boarder family continue...

The disadvantage of inheriting a considerable estate by an illegal trick is it puts the family of Mr. North at a disadvantage when someone tries to present a fraudulent will claiming half of that estate.

Timothy, the Duke of Trolenfield, and his new wife, Millicent (the sometimes "Mr. North"), depart to investigate the claim leaving the ladies of the Boarder family in Bath to enjoy themselves. Two single ladies, one seeking adventure, the other seeking security, are left unsupervised.

You know that can't end well.

Beautifully written & performed!

I loved it! Could not put it down. Once again my house is clean and I look forward to workouts and my drive into work. Uninterrupted listening time.

GREAT SERIES, BETTER THAN JANE AUSTEN!

Poe hadn't invented the mystery genre when Austen was writing, but now this series has everything -- page turning intrigue with several mysteries going on concurrently, humor, drama, camera-rolling visuals with the settings and characters, great whit, and snappy dialogue, And clean.
This one will also fill in some of the motivations and back stories of the characters that just wasn't possible to fit in the first book,

If you haven't read book#1 RIDICULOUS! yet you have to start with that one. It has a satisfying finish, but does a great job of setting up this one.

If audios, are your jam, you'll really like the narrater's many voices and dialects. She does a great job with men's voices and it is always clear who's talking. What a fabulous vocal range! You'll feel like you're right there!

This book is really satisfying, unique and memorable. I highly recommend it !
Here's hoping there will be a #3, just because it's that delicious.

Entertaining

This could have been made into 2 shorter, more cohesive books. It is an entertaining book but over populated with unlikable characters behaving outrageously. I was kept wondering what would happen next in the story. Overall it’s a good book and well narrated. Quite the sequel to “Rediculous.”
I’m pleased this is a plus catalog book.

Nothing to recommend. Save your money.

None of the characters in this book are likeable. They keep adding new character pov from worse and worse characters. I am not enjoying this book at all. The narrator does weird accents to try to distinguish different characters. They don't make sense and they aren't consistent.
I am abandoning this Audio book about halfway through.
I wish I could return or exchange this book.
