About this listen

Late October 1909, and the season of ghouls and things that go bump in the night has descended on the village of Littleton Cotterell.

Lady Hardcastle and her trusted lady’s maid, Florence, find themselves hosting a colorful cast of actors whose spooky moving picture, The Witch’s Downfall, is being shown to mark Halloween. But things take a macabre turn when the first night’s screening ends with a mysterious murder, and the second night with another.... One by one the actors turn up dead in ways that eerily echo their film.

With the police left scratching their heads, Lady Hardcastle calls upon her amateur sleuthing skills to launch an investigation, with Flo’s able assistance. Surrounded by suspects both human and supernatural, Lady Hardcastle must use a little trickery of her own to unmask the murderer.

Utterly brilliant!

This is the fourth in the series of Lady Hardcastle mysteries and all I can say is that T E Kinsey is amazing! But T E Kinsey and Elizabeth Knowelden combined is sheer magic!

There are so many laugh out loud moments, but the mystery does not suffer for all of the comedic moments that abound. The interaction between Lady Hardcastle and her lethal (though tiny) sidekick is priceless. All of the characters are beautifully drawn and brought to high-definition-colourful life by Elizabeth Knowelden. Her performance is superb; her arsenal of voices and accents are eminently listenable.

I 💕 this series and look forward to more.

My least favourite Lady H book

I've enjoyed the previous books but the plot for this one really just didn't work. The ending really was very anticlimactic
