About this listen

Tea and cake at The Ritz, a stolen pearl necklace and a missing dead body… Lady Swift is back on the case!

Lady Eleanor Swift has been eagerly awaiting her trip in a hot air balloon to take in London’s amazing sights. But what she witnesses instead is a murder! From way up high she sees man in a dark coat shoot another man dead, but by the time she arrives back on the ground, Eleanor can find no trace of the body. Just the broken piece of a pearl necklace clasp, trodden into the dirt.

Back at The Ritz hotel, over afternoon tea, Eleanor’s old friend Lady Philomena Chadwick confides in her about a scandalous theft. Lady Chadwick is certain someone on her staff has stolen her priceless pink pearl necklace. Eleanor is immediately suspicious when the description matches the jewellery she spotted at the crime scene.

Much to her butler Clifford’s amusement, Eleanor goes undercover as a governess in the Chadwick’s sparkling Mayfair mansion. As she sets about questioning the disgruntled staff, she uncovers a treasure trove of gossip. But how do a secret love affair, a flirty footman with a fondness for spying, and a housemaid hiding a nightly visitor connect to the murder?

And when Eleanor’s beau, Detective Hugh Seldon, is brought in to investigate a string of further robberies in Park Lane, Eleanor is certain that Chadwick House is hiding the unlikeliest gang of jewel thieves below stairs…

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but will this necklace get Eleanor killed before she uncovers the hidden gem she needs to crack the case?

Murder in Mayfair is a totally gripping and twisty Golden Age whodunnit set in London, perfect for fans of T.E. Kinsey, Agatha Christie and Catherine Coles!

Love, love, looooove Murder in Mayfair

I wait up until my preorder is available and immediately start to listen!

This story was aaaaaaaaalmost perfect! That damn stunt that Lady Swift pulled was extremely uncomfortable and mildly unbelievable.
I still believe this is the BEST series on Audible’s cozy mysteries!

Waiting with bated breath for the next installment!!

We adore all of the characters and each book is better and better!!

WORTH THE WAIT for Lady Swift's Latest Mystery

Delightful Verity Bright story with beautiful narration by Karen Cass. The usual cast of characters but this time multiple mysteries that lead to one BIG conundrum put DCI Seldon under suspicion and might lose his job. Can Lady Swift and Clifford pull this together and save Seldon? Humour included.
