Final thought: I recommend the Royal Spyness series to anyone who enjoys cozy mysteries! About the audio: Narrated by Katherine Kellgren and she did a bang up job! Her voices were spot on, the pacing was fantastic, and the reading was delightful. Check it out when you get a chance! These have a small carry over story but I think they can be read out of order or as standalones. This is one fun series for those that like amateur sleuth stories. It was a great Christmas Who-Done-It! Just my thoughts: The Twelve Clues of Christmas was a jolly good time! I had a blast while listening and was thrilled to delve back into her royal spyness. Read from November 20 to 24, 2012 Listened for FUN! Part of my 25 Christmas Reads for 2012 Overall Rating: 4.50 Story Rating: 4.50 Character Rating 4.50 Audio Rating (not part of the overall rating): 4.50 Christmas Rating: Just plain fun! First thought when finished: Rhys Bowen hit it out of the park with The Twelve Clues of Christmas. But after Darcy shows up beneath the mistletoe, anything could be possible in this wicked wonderland. The village is buzzing that a recent prison break could have something to do with it… that, or a long-standing witch’s curse.
On my second day in town, another so-called accident turns up another mincemeat pie-and yet another on my third. Dickensian, indeed.įreddie’s merely a stocking stuffer. The village is like something out of A Christmas Carol! But no sooner have I arrived than a neighborhood nuisance, a fellow named Freddie falls out of a tree, dead…. So it’s a miracle when I contrive to land a position as hostess to a posh holiday party in Tiddleton. Meanwhile, Mummy is holed up in a tiny village called Tiddleton-under-Lovey with that droll Noel Coward! And I’m snowed in at Castle Rannoch with my bumbling brother, Binky, and sourpuss sister-in-law, Fig. On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me-well, actually, my true love, Darcy O’Mara, is spending a feliz navidad tramping around South America. She may be 35th in line for the throne, but Lady Georgiana Rannoch cannot wait to ring in the new year-before a Christmas killer wrings another neck… Audie Award Winner, Solo Narration - Female, 2014
