Lord Edgington Investigates...

The Puzzle of Parham House : A 1920s Mystery

An ancient house with secrets to disclose, a string of murders with no clear motive and an enigma fit for a great detective.

England, 1928. When Lord Edgington and his young apprentice Christopher are called to investigate a simple theft at a grand Elizabethan estate, they are soon embroiled in a mystery involving priceless antiques, ancient myths and unscrupulous academics. But when people at Parham House are killed off apparently at random, the detectives must tackle a puzzle that may be impossible to solve.

Faced with a cast of suspects including a roguish archaeologist, a pair of ambitious twins, an expert on ancient weapons and the world’s most boring man, the master sleuth struggles to find the answer. Will his assistant step in to crack “The Puzzle of Parham House” or will more people die before the killer completes his elusive scheme?

The new book in the bestselling “Lord Edgington Investigates…” series of warm, funny and endlessly twisty whodunits is a spoiler-free mystery which can be read as a standalone novel.

I love this series and was happy to see Chrissie finally getting the recognition he deserves. The mystery was good, the cast of characters even better and as always George Blagden does a phenomenal job voice acting.
