About this audiobook
“One murder was quite enough for this family!” Lady Constance declared. “Two starts to look like carelessness! What happens when it’s three? Or four?”
France 1926. In the wake of murder and tragedy, Lord Unsworth and his family flee to the French Riviera in a desperate attempt to escape the ensuing scandal and find a few months of peace and solitude. But their hopes are soon dashed when Fanny joins a community of writers, artists, and anarchists, and Arthur unwittingly becomes entangled in a plot to catch an elusive international jewel thief.
And when Lord Unsworth’s old flame, Lady Rosaline Barrett De Marchi, is found dead in suspicious circumstances, the efficient Mr. Quayle finds himself once again called upon to save the family from ruin…
A Rather Dastardly Death is the second in the Mr. Quayle Mystery series.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I loved the first one in this series, but this is nowhere near as good so far. I should add that I only listened up to chapter six and will revisit and revise my review if necessary. This is full of cliche characters all quite dull and stereotypical. I couldn’t get through another chapter.
