Historia
When Aurelie Harcourt's father dies in debtor's prison, he leaves her just two things: his wealthy family, whom she has never met, and his famous pen name, Nathaniel Droll. Her new family greets her with apathy and even resentment. Only the quiet houseguest, Silas Rotherham, welcomes her company. When Aurelie decides to complete her father's unfinished serial novel, she must keep her identity as Nathaniel Droll hidden while searching for the truth about her mother's disappearance - and perhaps even her father's death.

So bad
Revisado: 11-26-22
The narration was so bad, I have no idea if the story was any good or not.

Historia
Let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. These ominous words, slashed from the pages of a book of Psalms, are the last threat that the darling of London society, Sir Edward Grey, receives from his killer. Before he can show them to Nicholas Brisbane, the private inquiry agent he has retained for his protection, Sir Edward collapses and dies at his London home, in the presence of his wife, Julia, and a roomful of dinner guests.

Dreadful in most respects
Revisado: 09-24-17
This was easily 3 hours longer than it needed to be. The narrator was an American with a very poor English accent. Why not just get a Brit? We will never know. I honestly could not finish it.

Historia
Melanie Travis has just started a new job, and with the added excitement of showing her Standard Poodle, Faith, in the fall shows, the last thing she wants is to become embroiled in yet another of her brother Frank's moneymaking schemes. His current brainstorm - remaking an old store in stylish suburban Fairfield County into a trendy coffee bar - already has the neighbors snarling. Worse, wealthy Marcus Rattigan, who's bankrolling the project, is found murdered on the premises, and the police think Frank did it.

Daniel is almost human
Revisado: 07-29-15
I have either gotten used to the narrator or she has gotten better after 11 books. Daniel is almost likable. I hope that trend continues. I still love Molly, Sid and Gus.

Horrible horrible narrator
Revisado: 06-12-15
Would you try another book from Carola Dunn and/or Mia Chiaromonte?
I enjoy the stories. They are lovely cozy mysteries, nothing unexpected but fun. Unfortunately this narrator must have previously only read to kindergarten students. She is down right annoying almost ruining the story. Almost every sentence is read as if it ends in an exclamation. I hope she doesn't read the rest of the series.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Daisy is great fun
How did the narrator detract from the book?
The narrator is one of the worst I have heard. She would be lovely for Dr Suess!
Was Murder on the Flying Scotsman worth the listening time?
do something else at the same time and the narrator won't cause you to do violence.

Excellent for pre WW2 mystery
Revisado: 01-17-15
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This series is wonderful, lot of twists and turns with excellent character.
What other book might you compare The Danger Point to and why?
This is similar to Georgette Heyer 20's 30's mysteries. Much about character and description. Not fast, to be savored.
Have you listened to any of Diana Bishop’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
She reads well, very appropriate to the genre.
Any additional comments?
This is perfect for a quiet time. Takes you away. Love the knitting sideline!

excellent regency
Revisado: 08-19-09
If you like regency you will find this a fine listen. At first I didn't warm up to her characters but the more of her books I read the more I liked them until I absolutely loved them. This is a good writer, with a good understanding of Regency wonderfully mixed with contemporary issues (battered women, handicapped rights) Really fun listen
