Really enjoyed this dramatic reading of a good mystery. Has alot of twists and turns to follow throughout the complete story. Very well presented and done by all readers. I really like these detective & murder mystery dramatic readings, would love to see many more of them. Thank you very much to all the volenteers and LibriVox Great job as always well worth lending a ear to.

Another ok mystery

The readers of George (British cockney accent) & the inspector (Indian accent) were difficult to understand at times due to the heaviness of their accents but everyone else sounded good. I'm glad that the characters were read by different people not just because I think it makes for a more enjoyable experience but also because there are so many characters. Too many! Due to the format I was able to keep them straight in my mind most of the time. This is another ok mystery. It doesn't have big twists nor turns. I'm not sure how some reviewers think otherwise. Maybe I've listened to too many books chock full of them. I didn't have a strong desire to find out who did it or to finish the story but it didn't drag nor bore me either. To me it's ok.

As usual with Fletcher the story was excellent Just slightly overlong. The readers new approach to share the narrating depending on the character speaking added to the enjoyment. I particularly enjoyed Milky Rubinstein in this connection. Well done to all - not least JS Fletcher! review by Grovesy.

What a delightful change of pace: a dramatization. I will be the first to say that dramatizations of Shakespeare do not work, since we do not always know who is speaking. But this novel, with it's directional narrative, is perfectly suited. I truly do not mind the occasional gender crossover. and I certainly would have enjoyed understanding the chief detective, but overall it was a very good experience. Kudos to the person who put this together; it required a tremendous amount of planning and editing. Thanks for your effort!

fantastic mystery & reading

The voice cast was really great, except a couple that were really bad. But just a couple. The story was pretty good too, but the ending could have been better.

Good Story
