Another intriguing Perry Mason mystery

Fine mystery with a twist of an ending. Slightly different than the tv series' version.

Great

Another excellent Perry Mason book. Narrator is incredible. It's great to play the guessing game.

A good one

I’ve read dozens of these Perry Mason stories and this is my favorite. Plus the narrator, Alexander Cendese, is perfect for the Erle Stanley Gardner tales. Highly recommended.

Great series (Even better than the TV series)

oh no...I was so excited...because listed below were the next 5 or 6 books in the series...but when I went to buy them a sign popped up "Ah shucks this item isn't available"...so disappointing. Alexander Cendese does a great job narrating this series and I sure hope the rest of the series becomes available again soon. I've purchased all the books that were available (40 give or take a few) and I sure would like to purchase the other 40. I've listened to all the ones available TWICE and am having Perry Mason withdrawal!!!

Ignominious

I had hoped for a pleasant trip down memory lane, but the stilted writing, inaccurate or missing details, chauvinism and shallow, stereotypical characters made this a chore to listen to. RIP Perry Mason.
