Summary
December 1940. Down Street underground station, in the heart of London's Mayfair, is now a secret retreat for Prime Minister Winston Churchill and his cabinet from the relentless air raids overhead. In this supposedly secure location, the body of a woman is found, stabbed in the heart. The victim, fortune-teller Lady Za Za, did not see this one coming. Chief Inspector Coburg and Sergeant Lampson are called to investigate but whispers of treason and corruption succeed in muddying the waters of the case. As the pressure rises and more victims come to light, Coburg and Lampson are on dangerous ground, with a devious killer on the loose.

Not as enjoyable as the others in the series
I was excited to see this book come out as I am a big fan of the museum murder series and the hotel murders but it was a bit disappointing. No problems with the performance, it was just the story that didn't quite come up to the usual standard.

listening while cooking
I rather agree with a previous review - the reader is excellent and is very good at representing the various characters, although to my mind Sgt Lampson's London accent is a tad overdone. He is clearly a thoughtful and intelligent man who is attractive to his sons teacher who recognises his qualities and will no doubt encourage his advancement in the post war period. I will probably listen to this again shortly as I was concentrating on other matters, mid story, I do enjoy listening to a series in sequence to follow the development of the characters, although inevitably one does compare one book to a previous one, All in all, quite an enjoyable listen.

I might have missed something, but I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the previous
I’m a fan of these books, both the “museums murders” and the “hotels murders”, and I had preordered this one but I was a disappointed: it is not as engaging as the others.
The subplot with Rosa’s rival singer was too far fetched for me.
I might have to wait a few months and that listen again, and see if make more sense.
The reader is great, I really enjoy his performance.
