Publisher's Summary

A little music, a little dancing, a little murder at the spring ball.

England, 1925. After years shut away from the world, former detective Lord Edgington of Cranley Hall plans a grand ball to celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday.

But when someone starts bumping off members of his scheming family, the old man enlists his teenage grandson to help find the killer, before one of them is next.

The mismatched duo must pick the culprit from a gaggle of preening playboys, scatter-brained spinsters and irate inspectors in this Agatha-Christie-style whodunnit that will have you racing to spot the killer.

With a cast of eccentric suspects (both upstairs and down) and an adorable golden retriever along for the ride, Murder at the Spring Ball is a warm-hearted murder mystery full of intrigue, humour and adventure.

The Lord Edgington Investigates... audiobooks are narrated by George Blagden from the TV shows, Vikings, Versailles, and the Oscar-winning film of Les Miserables.

characterization is lovely

There's a deep sense of empathy Mr Brown injects into his characters that really gets to your heart. Even the bullies and the criminals are treated with a sense of understanding. I'm on my 4th book and enjoying them immensely. George Blagden is the perfect narrator - expressing the sweetness of Chrissy and the gruff affection of Lord Edgington so well.
