About this listen
It seems that a low-rent Don Juan has been busily seducing the local womenfolk, and, in a town this small, no secret is kept for long. When the Fletchers' picnic is interrupted by the discovery of a broken body at the foot of the cliff, that of the philandering local innkeeper, the unflappable Daisy Dalrymple finds herself embroiled in a mystery.
In the continuation of her popular series, Carola Dunn vividly evokes the life and times of 1920s England, wrapped in a classic mystery to delight her many fans.

"A lively historical cozy." (Library Journal)
"Replete with well-drawn characters, snappy dialogue, and interesting plot twists...a charming series." (Booklist)

A Fun Cosy Mystery Spoiled by Narration
I like both Dunn’s books and the narrator, Dunne, separately, but I thinking using a narrator who can’t speak with an English accent to narrate a book set in England, and featuring an array of English characters, as a mistake. This is the first of Dunn’s Daisy books I’ve listened to, and if I hadn’t already heard a Cornish Dunn book, read by an Englishwoman, which charmed me, I’m not sure I’d have persisted past chapter one with this one. I think I’ll stick to the other narrators, and read the texts of those Dunne has narrated instead. It’s a nice book, and I’m glad I persisted.

Good period story
I would prefer a true English narrator as I found the bad pronunciation distracting. Good story though.

Why!!!!!!!!
these stories are not exactly high brow, but they are well written and fun. I was irritated by the terrible narrators of the first books, but then Lucy N was great......but now you've gone back to the shocking narrator. the only reason I am still going with it is because I can see the Narration goes back to Lucy after this book

Narration spoilt story
Unfortunately I had to stop listening, the American narrator over pronounced or mis pronounced so many words it was like fingers on a blackboard.
