You see where (romance) is going, enjoy the ride

This non-series mystery and romantic caper by ELizabeth Peters is a madcap/screwball comedy which apparently (reading the other written reviews) is trying to a listener who is not a long standing fan of Peters and her other pseudonym, Barbara Michaels. Although this is not one of my top favorites among Peters/Michaels many works, I still enjoyed it very much (4 stars). The heroine, Elizabeth, is thrown in with the Rosenbergs, mother (Margaret) and son (Christian, who is the grumpy hero). Only Margaret, who goes on the lam, knows what the heck is going on, but Christian and Elizabeth muddle through with repeated clumsy mishaps when confronting the criminals. This is definitely one of the more confusing novels by Peters so I recommend it for listening by long standing fans and not for readers/listeners who are new to Peters. Lastly, this novel is not a travelogue for Copenhagen but does contain some Scandinavian history and archeology.
For listeners who are new to Peters, I recommend trying one of her other, more sedate novels or one of her series. See the bibliography in the Wikipedia entry for Elizabeth Peters.
Recommended for people who like madcap plays like Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" or Brandon Thomas's "Charley's Aunt" or madcap movies like "Bringing Up Baby" (Katherine Hepburn and Carey Grant). These are three of my favorites for light hearted screwball entertainment containing much confusion.
(I found the narration too loud and had to turn down the volume from my usual comfort level; odd considering I am slightly deaf.)
Farce humorous novel by Elizabeth Peters, best for long standing fans

a fun listen

There's also a lot of humor in that these criminals are generally greedy put not masterminds.
While I generally like Grace Conlin as a narrator, there are some words for which she has interesting pronunciations.
Fun and playful

It was difficult to know how to listen but maybe like a song where you can’t get the lyrics, just follow the rhythm. With that attitude established, the tune was fairly pleasant.
Spoiler alert: of the two women in Christian’s life, one is consistently helpless and one is not.
