Summary

Murder, Mystery and a dog, and cat, of distinction

Book 10 in the Heathcliff Lennox series. A man shot through the heart with an arrow - the victim a rich outsider who has moved into Ashton Hall in the village of Ashton Steeple...which is Lennox's own village, and everyone is watching as he and Swift try to hunt down the killer.

Persi, Lennox's new wife, is keen to help, so is the whole household, including Tommy the boot boy and Greggs the ever stalwart butler. But the killer is clever, and devious and is always a step ahead, and it will take all of Swift's dogged detective work and Lennox's erratic intelligence, to track the murderer down.

Major Heathcliff Lennox - ex WW1 war pilot, 6feet 3inch, tousled dark blond hair, age around 30 – named after the hero of Wuthering Heights by his romantically minded mother – much to his great annoyance.

Brilliant

Karen has given us another brilliant offering in the Heathcliff Lennox series with Murder at Ashton Steeple. I really enjoyed it, and without giving any spoilers away, the last line had me laughing out loud. A literary treat.

Wonderful listen

Everything you come to expect.
If possible because of the financial worries it makes Heathcliff even more realistic.
Love all the main characters and the storyline was “top notch “.

Sheer bliss

The partnership of writer and narrator is perfection. I have listened to all audiobooks in the series and always await the next with great anticipation. The style is an unapologetic homage to Agatha Christie and Wodehouse and ideal for those wishing total escapism and utter delight. Long may they continue.

The heart warming setting of 1930s country village life spiced with a murder or two

Another first class story and first class narration. I never want these stories to finish.
