Good mystery

the narrators did an outstanding job. The story was very good and the period details helped to draw the listener in and enabled them to envision what was happening.

Excellent Story and Narration

I liked it enough to buy another one in the series (I’m reading them out of order). Switching narrators each chapter takes some getting used to because each one voices the male and female characters differently. I believe this series would have worked better with only one narrator, as the four I’ve listened to so far have unevenly matched voices. One is usually louder; one is usually slower. Still, it’s fun to have found a series that’s interesting with good mysteries and a realistic, non-sappy love interest.

The narration is great, as per Granger's other books. The story is very interesting and worth the time. I liked the characters and the red herrings. I didn't think it's quite as easy to listen to since there are so many characters, but that might be me. I am definitely continuing to the next book.

Great narration

It was different… loooog winded but if you like details of the period and linguistics go for it. Nice little story but a very slow build and a lot of period detail.
