About this listen

Why did Sir Julius Farran die?

Hoping to attract a generous endowment, St Agatha's College, Cambridge, invites the fabulously wealthy Sir Julius Farran to dine. The evening is a disaster for everyone except the college nurse, Imogen Quy, who Farran invites her to come and work for him.

Imogen declines, but when Farran dies, suddenly and shockingly, she has to investigate. His death has left a large hole in his company accounts that could mean financial ruin for St Agatha's. To save her beloved college, Imogen starts to cast her cool eye over the financier's heirs, employees and enemies.

What is right about the death of Sir Julius? What is wrong about it? And above all, why did it happen?

Another good mystery from Jill Paton Walsh

This is the third in a series of four and I really enjoy the lead character Imogen Quy, the college nurse/detective, because the stories remind me of the "Golden Age" detective writers like Christie, Sayers and Marsh. These are gentle mysteries with a slow burning fuse, so persist through the first chapters of this one which has a really clever twist near the end. Beautifully read by Suzannah Hampton.
