Behold a Fair Woman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 472min
Amateur sleuth Mordecai Tremaine is back in another classic mystery from the author of Murder for Christmas. Mordecai Tremaine's hobby of choice - crime detection - has left him in need of a holiday. A break away from that gruesome business of murder will be just the ticket, and the picturesque island of Moulin d'Or seems to be just the destination. Amid the sunshine and the sea air, Mordecai falls in with a band of fellow holidaymakers and tries to forget that such a thing as foul play exists. He should have been wiser, of course, because before too long villainy rears its head and a dead body is discovered. With a killer stalking the sand dunes, it falls to Mordecai to piece together the truth about just who has smuggled murder on to the island idyll.... ungekürzt. Language: English.

Amateur sleuth Mordecai Tremaine is back in another classic mystery from the author of Murder for Christmas. Mordecai Tremaine and Chief Inspector Jonathan Boyce are never pleased to have a promising game of chess interrupted - though when murder is the disrupting force, they are persuaded to make an exception. A quick stop at Scotland Yard to collect any detective's most trusted piece of equipment - the murder bag - the pair are spirited away to Bridgton. No sooner have they arrived than it becomes clear that the city harbours more than its fair share of passions and motives...and one question echoes loudly throughout the cobbled streets: why did Dr Hardene, the local GP of impeccable reputation, bring a revolver with him on a routine visit to a patient? Mordecai Tremaine's latest excursion into crime detection leaves him in doubt that, when it comes to murder, nothing can be assumed.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Geoffrey Beevers.

Ein Mord zu Weihnachten
Alljährlich lädt Benedict Grame Familie, Freunde und Bekannte zum großen Weihnachtsessen auf sein kleines britisches Landgut ein. Im Kreise seiner Lieben inszeniert er ein großes Festtagsspektakel. Dieses Jahr steht auch Mordecai Tremaine auf der Gästeliste. Der ehemalige Tabakhändler mit einer Schwäche für Liebesromane hat sich auch als Hobbydetektiv einen Namen gemacht - und ist vom Privatsekretär des Gastgebers beauftragt worden, die Geladenen im Auge zu behalten. Und tatsächlich: Jedes Mitglied dieser illustren Gesellschaft scheint etwas zu verbergen. Mordecai tastet sich durch ein Netz aus Lügen, Untreue, Erpressung und Verrat. Spätestens als um Mitternacht zwischen den Geschenken unter dem Baum eine Leiche liegt, ist ihm klar: Diese Weihnacht wird alles andere als besinnlich. Erstmals 1949 veröffentlicht, ist dieser stimmungsvolle Krimi eine echte Weihnachtswiederentdeckung.- Shop: buecher

I hope to take listeners on a journey from the glittering ballrooms of the aristocracy to the dark underbelly of Regency England - with passion, danger, adventure, romance, and a little magic thrown into the mix.I think the series could also be labelled Regency Noir, because it falls on the darker, grittier side of the romance fence, although each book contains humor, too. The stories are emotional, but not sweet (there’s sex, violence, and my heroes do swear at times!).Why did you write this series?I wanted to get my well-bred heroines out of the drawing rooms and put them in the way of adventure and romance. But I didn’t want to write a series where magic is common; I wanted to write a series where only a few characters have magic, and it’s a deep, dark secret, and no one else knows.But...do magic and Regency England go together?Definitely!
