About this listen

In spring a young man’s fancy will turn to love, and the Honorable Phillip Petrie is no exception. Daisy’s chum is totally smitten with Miss Gloria Arbuckle, daughter of a millionaire Yank. But before the enthusiastic suitor can pop the question, his beloved is abducted. As a distraught Mr. Arbuckle begins assembling the ransom, Phillip enlists Daisy to help him recover his missing sweetheart.

Strictly forbidden to contact Scotland Yard, Daisy must resist the temptation to bring dashing Detective Inspector Alec Fletcher on to the case. But as she closes in on the abductors’ rural hideaway, she begins to suspect that Gloria isn’t the only fair damsel whose life hangs in the balance.

The fifth whodunit in Carola Dunn’s stylish cozy mystery series set in 1923 England once again features British heiress and Town and County writer Daisy Dalrymple.

Fun story - distracting narration

I enjoy the Daisy Dalrymple series: however Mia Chiarmonte’s attempts at English accents, and mispronunciation of place names is highly distracting.

Story good, narrator awful

A terrible narration of a good book. When the narrator can’t even pronounce the names of the towns properly, let alone say traditional English sayings correctly, the whole thing becomes very grating. Truly disappointing, as the story itself was entertaining.
