À propos de cet audio
England, 1919. In Anna Lee Huber's latest mystery, former Secret Service agent Verity Kent is finding that life after wartime offers its own share of danger....
The Great War may be over, but for many, there are still obstacles on the home front. Reconciling with her estranged husband makes Verity sympathetic to her friend Ada's marital difficulties. Bourgeois-bred Ada, recently married to the Marquess of Rockham, is overwhelmed trying to navigate the ways of the aristocracy. And when Lord Rockham is discovered shot through the heart with a bullet from Ada's revolver, Verity fears her friend has made a fatal blunder.
While striving to prove Ada's innocence, Verity is called upon for another favor. The sister of a former Secret Service colleague has been killed in what authorities believe was a home invasion gone wrong. The victim's war work - censoring letters sent by soldiers from the front - exposed her to sensitive, disturbing material. Verity begins to suspect these two unlikely cases may be linked. But as the connections deepen, the consequences- not just for Verity, but for Britain - grow more menacing than she could have imagined.

Another great Verity Kent mystery
Verity has been asked to help not only one, but two close friends to help solve a murder. One is a sister and the other is her husband. She agrees to help with her husband and a police detective aiding.
This is a historical mystery set in the time period right after WWI in London, England. The characters are expertly crafted with distinct and engaging personalities complete with positive and negative attributes. The story is told from Verity’s point of view allowing us to be privy to her reasoning, reactions, motivations and emotional responses. The narrative is wonderful giving great descriptions that allow one’s imagination to make them feel they are in the post war era. The dialogue is witty and clever. The mysteries were spectacularly weaved together into a smooth flowing storyline full of suspicious suspects, a myriad of subtle clues, dead ends, danger and suspense. I enjoyed the complexity of the mystery, the side stories, the way the atrocity of war was acknowledged and of course the complicated and touching relationship between husband and wife. I can hardly wait for the next story featuring these great characters.
The presenter was simply amazing. I loved the inflection in her voice, her accent and the way she made the story come to life.
