That Affair at Elizabeth

That Affair at Elizabeth

2015 • 250 pages

Excellent golden-age mystery! It kept me guessing all day, as theory after theory crossed the pages as reason for the almost-bride's sudden disappearance. Many times I was on the edge of my seat, especially when the sleuth, Lester, and his friend Godfrey find out what the strange woman is doing in her cellar at night! I wanted to root for Burr Curtiss and his bride Marcia the whole way, but the way was very dark, even inky, with many suspicions of Marcia and her fate.

I listened to the Librivox recording, and the narrator is excellent. Five stars for her reading, too.
