Fresh, funny crime series for fans of Jasper Fforde and M.C. Beaton.
'Delightful and original... A series that could well become a cult' DAILY MAIL.
125 Gower Street, 1882.
Sidney Grice once had a reputation as London's most perspicacious personal detective. But since his last case led an innocent men to the gallows, business has been light.
Listless and depressed, Grice has taken to lying in the bath for hours, emerging in the evenings for a little dry toast and a lot of tea. Usually a voracious reader, he will pick up neither book nor newspaper. He has not even gathered the strength to re-insert his glass eye. His ward, March Middleton, has been left to dine alone.
Then an eccentric member of a Final Death Society has the temerity to die on his study floor. Finally Sidney and March have an investigation to mount – an investigation that will draw them to an eerie house in Kew, and the mysterious Baroness Foskett...
Praise for THE CURSE OF THE HOUSE OF FOSKETT:
'A well-plotted mystery full of twists and turns, skullduggery, danger, and double-dealing' GOODREADS.
'With fun and thrills this has a lot of humour and many nods to the Sherlock Holmes tales' AMAZON VINE REVIEWER.

Älskar dessa böcker! Miljön, spänningen samt humorn. Underbar inläsare också.

Suveräna böcker: miljöer, storyline, karaktärer; hemska och vackra samtidigt som man ofta måste skratta högt, och därtill en av de absolut bästa uppläsare jag hört!

Just as brilliant as the first book. What a treat! And on to book 3 in the series.

Jag håller med om att den engelska uppläsaren är fantastisk och böckerna vansinnigt roliga! Varning för pinsamma ögonblick när man plötsligt brister ut i ett frustande gapskratt på cykeln till jobbet eller bland folk på stan! (Karaktären Molly (the maid) är min favorit.

Bra o lite ruskig deckare. Mest gillar jag personporträtten. Tiden är väl skildrad
