About this listen
Audie Award Finalist, Mystery, 2014
As 35th in line for the throne, Lady Georgiana Rannoch may not be the most sophisticated young woman, but she knows her table manners. It's forks on the left, knives on the right - not in His Majesty's back….
"Here I am thinking the education I received at my posh Swiss finishing school would never come in handy. And while it hasn't landed me a job, or a husband, it has convinced Her Majesty the Queen and the Dowager Duchess to enlist my help. I have been entrusted with grooming Jack Altringham - the Duke's newly discovered heir fresh from the Outback of Australia - for high society. The upside is I am to live in luxury at one of England's most gorgeous stately homes. But upon arrival at Kingsdowne Place, my dearest Darcy has been sent to fetch Jack, leaving me stuck in a manor full of miscreants…none of whom are too pleased with the discovery of my new ward. And no sooner has the lad been retrieved than the Duke announces he wants to choose his own heir. With the house in a hubbub over the news, Jack's hunting knife somehow finds its way into the Duke's back. Eyes fall, backs turn, and fingers point to the young heir. As if the rascal wasn't enough of a handful, now he's suspected of murder. Jack may be wild, but I'd bet the crown jewels it wasn't he who killed the Duke…."

Katherine Kellgren is fabulous
Heirs and Graces is a romping good novel. It keeps you guessing right up to the end. However what makes it such fun is the way Katherine Kellgren narrates it. Her versatility of accents is astonishing - it really sounds like there’s a lot of different people involved. Her deftness at switching from one accent to another is mind blowing.

Voice acting.
A good, old murder mystery with a twist… I can’t wait to listen to the next one.

Good Plot Premise
If you’re au fait with your Greek Mythology, then, this may well be a walk in the park for you. I’m not, and neither was the Chief Inspector (whose character I did not warm to). Talking about characters I didn’t warm to, the hand maiden, Queenie, is still not a favourite. Fortunately there was very little of her but she’s still annoying.
An idyllic country seat is the scene of the crime, with a disparate cast of characters only 2 of whom could have been supposed to have committed the crime. As only Lady Georgiana is both willing and able to solve the crime, it’s fortunate that she happens to be on hand, doing everything except what she was ‘hired’ to do...
Another lack lustre story, but perfectly suited to whiling away an evening during the pandemic lockdown of 2020!

Kellgren Strikes Again
Katherine Kellgren is possibly the best audiobook reader I have ever heard. She brings Georgie to life and makes an already wonderful story incredible.

Irritating narrator
She's got a hard as nails voice and says "parssage" and "eyelarsh". Even posh people in the olden days didn't talk so weirdly
