Summary
March, 1941. World War Two is well underway and the Blitz is taking its toll on Central London with bombs raining down almost every night. Inspector Coburg and his trusted Sergeant Lampson are just recovering from the devastating bomb attack on the Café de Paris when they get a call asking them to go to the disused Lord's Underground station. Once there, they are taken to see the body of a man on the former platform. He's been beaten to death by blows on the back of his head, by what Dr Welbourne believes to have been a cricket bat.
Could the dead man be associated with the British Empire XI who are playing against English cricket teams at the world-famous Lord's cricket ground? Coburg and Lampson have a puzzling case to solve…

Engaging new adventure for the detective, his wife and the other recurring characters
This book kept me company during a drive.
I enjoyed also the other series by Jim Eldridge, but these mysteries set in London during World War II are my favorite.
The plot is very plausible, and the reading is excellent, as always.
Too bad I finished it so quickly, now I’ll patiently wait for the next one.

Cricket and jazz
This started a bit jumbled but as usual came to a satisfactory conclusion. Mark Meadows is a great narrator but white actors doing black Caribbean parts isn’t an easy listen so I wish book producers would think about that in narratives. Anyway I’m starting to really enjoy the supporting characters, especially the bromance between The Earl and his ‘old friend’/batman.
