About this listen
A Royal Spyness mystery starring Lady Georgiana, 34th in line for the throne - and the mystery world's favorite penniless heiress.
With its posh clientele in the country for the summer, Georgie's housecleaning business has fizzled. So she tries hiring herself out as a dinner and theatre companion. But her first client has quite the wrong idea.
To avoid further scandal, Georgie's shipped home to Castle Rannoch, where her summer plans include honoring a promise to Her Majesty to keep Castle Rannoch's divorced houseguest from seducing the Prince of Wales. She's also been coerced into helping Scotland Yard with a top-secret mission - namely keeping an eye on the shooting party at Balmoral and preventing someone from shooting the Prince. And Georgie must manage all this without strangling her odious sister-in-law Fig or spineless brother Binky.

A throughly good listen
Where does Royal Flush rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This book would be in my top ten, along with the previous two by this author.
What other book might you compare Royal Flush to, and why?
Very similar in style to previous books from this author.
What about Katherine Kellgren’s performance did you like?
Love the different accents she comes up with, very easy to put a face to the accent. She is almost (but not quite) in the same league as Ian Carmichael. Coming from me that is high praise indeed.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Several times I had a giggle, especially with the haggis hunting!
Any additional comments?
This is the third in the series, and is every bit as good as the first two. I actually bought three extra credits so I could buy more. Looking forward to listening to those, by which time my regular credits should be due. I will be spending those on the remaining two books in the series. Then what am I going to do?

Another wonderful time killer
I have become somewhat addicted to this series mostly due to the fact that it’s easy going, fun, and never all too much. Yet again the audiobook is stunningly executed, and Darcy O’Mara is the dazzling hero that swoops in at just the right moment. This was a better book than the last, and I can’t wait to get to the next one!

Narration
The narrator reads beautifully, until she attempts accents, the Scottish and Irish accents are atrocious, but the greater irritation for me is the pronunciation of certain words, using American English rather than the Queen’s English for certain words,
eg “progress”. The books are set in England so the narrator should use English pronunciation. I was also rather perturbed by one of the ladies using a “purse”, instead of a handbag, which presumably was not down to the narrator. However I do enjoy these stories, perfect for relaxing at bedtime.

Accidents in the Highlands.
Would you listen to Royal Flush again? Why?
I shall leave it a month or two and then listen again. This series is so easy to listen to and is great in the background for trips to see my grandchildren who are about 4 hours away by car.
What did you like best about this story?
It is fiction but with a hint of possible truth in the storyline. Wallis Simpson and the future King and other scandals in royal circles.
Which character – as performed by Katherine Kellgren – was your favourite?
Belinda always stands out as favorite. The way she shouts 'Georgie' when they meet in that posh voice.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Accidents or planned sabotage against the royals?

Royal Flush
This is a funny story starting with Lady Georgina not realising her new escort agency did not mean just accompany a gentleman on a social occasions. To the attends murder of the Prince of Wales. Read brilliantly again by Katherine Kellgren.

Ruined by Mangled accents
A decent cozy crime totally ruined by the narrators appalling attempts at accents. Appalling southern Irish, Scottish, cockney and ‘Belindas ‘posh’ succeed only in entirely distracting from the story itself. And can someone please tell the narrator that you don’t need to lower your voice to come over as male? Awful awful.
