“Justine Eyre’s narration is well suited to this mystery featuring members of the English aristocracy…Eyre perfectly captures [Lady Frances’] haughty accent, strong will, and flippant attitude towards tradition. Eyre gives fitting portrayals of all the characters—from the highest-born ladies to the maids and servants, as well as the guests who visit the estate. Notably, Eyre is convincing as the mysterious Turkish diplomat who won’t reveal what he’s seen, as well as the American woman who wishes to own the estate.”

“Audie Award winner Justine Eyre gives the story the full-voiced treatment, complete with appropriate accents, from Irish to Turkish. She is a superior voice in the business. The series is highly recommended.”

“A very enjoyable series…[Koreto] is a superb writer of the beloved upstairs/downstairs mystery.”

“The character dialogue is fantastic. The female leads are simply wonderful…I can tell the writer loves this time period, as he handles the era’s mannerisms and conventions masterfully. All in all, this is a delightful read.”

“A charming Edwardian mystery with a delightfully unconventional heroine and her plucky maid as sidekick.”

“Appealing…The delightful Franny and Mallow soon discover familial as well as political motives behind the crime. Koreto nicely blends international intrigue and affairs of the heart.”

“Koreto skillfully contrasts the feminist milieu of 1907 England with the establishment class structure. Lady Frances and Mallow are an effective pairing.”

“A suffragette sleuth solves a baffling murder, to the chagrin of Scotland Yard…Koreto’s second case for his titled heroine is devilishly clever and written with unmistakable verve.”
