About this listen
A little music, a little dancing, a little murder at the spring ball.
England, 1925. After years shut away from the world, former detective Lord Edgington of Cranley Hall plans a grand ball to celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday.
But when someone starts bumping off members of his scheming family, the old man enlists his teenage grandson to help find the killer, before one of them is next.
The mismatched duo must pick the culprit from a gaggle of preening playboys, scatter-brained spinsters and irate inspectors in this Agatha-Christie-style whodunnit that will have you racing to spot the killer.
With a cast of eccentric suspects (both upstairs and down) and an adorable golden retriever along for the ride, Murder at the Spring Ball is a warm-hearted murder mystery full of intrigue, humour and adventure.
The Lord Edgington Investigates... audiobooks are narrated by George Blagden from the TV shows, Vikings, Versailles, and the Oscar-winning film of Les Miserables.

Book one - of an humorously interesting investigative series
When you love Bertie Wooster, Earl of Blandings, Jeeves, you should find this new series is on a par.
Benedict Brown has produced a brilliant starter - book 2 is downloading while I type this review.
Lord Edgington Investigates series, where the main characters, motives, scenery, setting, staff of the stately seat, the cast of extras including animals, birds, vehicles and weather make for hilarious enjoyable reading, thank you Benedict Brown, very much appreciated. :-)

Inconsistent characters
I’m not writing off the author or the series - It’s a first in a series, so it may be the author is still getting the feel of the characters. But there were some jarring character inconsistencies that felt like they were acting at certain times only for the author to get a laugh from the reader. For example, we hear that Chrissie’s mum is a kind and thoughtful soul, yet she can’t think of something nice to say about her own son in the first few chapters.
