About this listen

It is 1934. Returning to the West Country after their latest adventure in London, lady's maid Verity Hunter and cook Joan Hart are ready to embrace a quieter life. Their mistress, the glamorous young heiress Dorothy Drew, is attempting to rein in her enthusiasm for too many cocktails and takes up the offer of a place to rest and recuperate from an old family friend, Mrs Ashford.

All seems well, until the day after they arrive, when everyone in the house is struck down by what appears to be mushroom poisoning. The deadly dish proves fatal for one unlucky soul. As Verity and Joan begin to delve deeper into the tangled relationships of the Ashford family and their guests, it becomes apparent that too many people have secrets to keep...some of which are worth killing for....

The author injects too much modern thinking and language into her writing, which makes her books unconvincing and often bordering on the ridiculous. Why set a story in 1934 when you can't make it realistic? A member of staff behaving like Joan Hart would be immediately fired without a reference.
"The Hidden House Murders" is a passable murder mystery but the ridiculous modernity of Joan Hart's thinking and language prevent the reader from losing themselves in the story. The fact that the main character ceaselessly complains about everything is the final nail in the coffin.

Ridiculous.
