Summary

Downton Abbey meets Agatha Christie with a touch of Wodehouse and a dog of distinction.

Who killed Sir Crispin Gibbons? A wedding invitation and news of mischief that could be murder takes Lennox to the Earl of Bloxford's country estate. He, soon, finds himself in a world of purloined artworks, forgeries, and a priceless Bloxford beauty. 

But who are the Bloxford beauties? And why are they the focal point around which death swirls?

Lennox must confront life-long friends, unscrupulous artists, and dealers to finally unravel a plot so complex that even his old adversary, Chief Inspector Swift of Scotland Yard, is perplexed.

Lovely, perfect winter read

I read the first in the series and was excited to see both available on Audible. Excellent writing and narration. Make no mistake this is not a cozy fluffy mystery but there is a lot of humor and cohesive content. It's a win win!

Another fabulous Lennox tale.

The second installment of Lennox and Mr Fogg at a new location with more mysteries to solve, beware when listening Sam's soprano is a bit of a shrieker! Its brilliant!
