About this audiobook

Mysteries come in all shapes and sizes. Some are simple to solve, others are fiendishly complex to work our way through. With many a red herring, McGuffin or dead end our authors take us on many a merry waltz through narratives and characters that ensure our literary adventures with them are entertaining to say the least.
