About this listen

Finished listening to all of Bridgerton? Discover your next favourite regency romance novelist, Beth Andrews.

While her older sister is being presented to London Society for the season, Lydia Bramwell is sent to her Aunt Camilla in the Sussex countryside. High-spirited Lydia expects a very dull visit, but her sojourn to the village of Diddlington is not as idyllic as she anticipates . . .

A charred and bludgeoned corpse is found in the woods, and suspicion falls on Lydia's aunt's suitor, an intriguing Frenchman. Convinced of his innocence, Lydia enlists the help of her new friend, John Savidge, to catch the real killer. But before their dangerous adventure ends there will be more than one unexpected discovery.

Fans of Julia Quinn, Wendy Soliman, Mary Balogh, Jenny Hambly, Lisa Kleypas, Jean Rowden's historical mysteries or Jane Austen will love this romantic regency murder mystery.

Brilliantly funny.

One of these books which you can relax with. Great characters, funny story with great societal observations.

some interesting themes

But the behaviour of the characters, especially the heroine, was unbelievable for the period.
Too many basic errors, eg a baronet is not a member of the peerage and an underage girl could not get engaged before her father was asked for permission, which the man would seek.
And the solution to the murders was obvious much too early.

Very amusing despite the murders!

This does not follow the usual kind of pattern for a Regency romance. For example, there are a couple of rather horrid murders, and the romantic leads are not astoundingly gorgeous in appearance. But I enjoyed it - I found it well written, entertaining, frequently amusing and well narrated. A good short, light read.

Funny, witty, thank you for performance. I am glad to recommend this audio book even it is not very ordinary.
