About this listen
The first of the classic mysteries featuring governess-turned-detective Miss Silver, who investigates a deadly conspiratorial ring.
Charles Moray has come home to England to collect his inheritance. After four years wandering the jungles of India and South America, the hardy young man returns to the manor of his birth, where generations of Morays have lived and died. Strangely, he finds the house unlocked, and sees a light on in one of its abandoned rooms. Eavesdropping, he learns of a conspiracy to commit a fearsome crime.
Never one for the heroic, Charles’ first instinct is to let the police settle it. But then he hears her voice. Margaret, his long lost love, is part of the gang. To unravel their diabolical plot, he contacts Miss Silver, a onetime governess who applies her reason to solve crimes and face the dangers of London’s underworld.

Old style mystery
I grew up on Agatha Christie so I like the old style mysteries and it is worth bearing in mind that this was written in 1929. If you love a great deal of blood and gore and a hero or heroine who leaves dead bodies in their wake as they stalk the perpetrator, this is not the book for you. If you enjoy a clear thinking detective who, although surrounded by idiots who insist on stumbling into danger at every available opportunity, solves a puzzle without the benefit of any modern day devices, then this will be right up your alley. I will be getting the next one.

surprisingly fun
possibly not one of the best known or well written series of the golden age of decetive novels, but lots of fun.
Margot is a really bubble brain and Archie not much better but other characters aren't and Margaret is a woman of backbone
looking forwards to listening to the next in the series
