Aunt Bessie has become something of an expert in the history of the island that she's called home for all of her adult life. Aunt Bessie considers it unfair when the entire conference schedule is thrown into disarray by Mack Dickson's sudden arrival. Mack promises that what he has to say is important enough to warrant the upheaval. But even more turmoil follows when Bessie discovers Mack's body only a short time after he's finished giving his speech.

Aunt Bessie and her friends are brought to life once again in this third installment of a delightful cozy mystery series set in the Isle of Man. With a whole cast of characters from different regions each given their own distinct voice, the narrator does a wonderful job of transporting the listener into the various scenes. Writing and characterizations are clean and crisp. A great listen!

Historia4 out of 5 stars 242
Paris in the 1920s: It is a city of intoxicating ambition, passion, art, and discontent, where louche jazz venues like the Chameleon Club draw expats, artists, libertines, and parvenus looking to indulge their true selves. It is at the Chameleon where the striking Lou Villars, an extraordinary athlete and scandalous cross-dressing lesbian, finds refuge among the club's loyal denizens, including the rising photographer Gabor Tsenyi, the socialite and art patron Baroness Lily de Rossignol, and the caustic American writer Lionel Maine.

EVOCATIVE STORYTELLING AT ITS BEST!

Any additional comments?
The audiobook format is particularly suited to story lines with multiple points of view. We know immediately whose perspective we're hearing, and, in the case of multi-narrator presentations like this one, we get a full sense of different characters' personalities without the confusion that reading written text sometimes creates. This audiobook delivers on so many fronts: a terrific story that is multi-layered and fascinating, and narration that evokes all the smoky, sexy ambiance of Paris plus the tension of pre- to post-war Europe. Accents were spot on, especially the women's, and we needed them to flesh out these diverse and complex characters. Terrific writing from an acclaimed author who doesn't disappoint, and terrific narration and storytelling by an accomplished cast of voice actors.

ENJOYABLE STORY, CAPTIVATING NARRATION

What did you love best about The Highlander (The Highlanders)?
This is an enjoyable sweet romance with lots of chemistry and just the right amount of heat between the main characters. I was very impressed by the reader's ability to distinguish between Highland Scottish and Lowland Scottish accents. Very authentic. Well done, both author and narrator!
