About this listen
“You shall never have a penny of my money. Leave me alone or I will shoot you dead!”
The year 1924. After six months in Hollywood, young British widow Emma Blackstone has come to love her new employer, glamourous movie-star Kitty Flint - even if her late husband’s sister is one of the worst actresses she’s ever seen. Looking after Kitty and her three adorable Pekinese dogs isn’t work academically minded Emma dreamed of, but Kitty rescued her when she was all alone in the world. Now, the worst thing she has to worry about is the shocking historical inaccuracies of the films Kitty stars in.
Until, that is, Rex Festraw - Kitty’s first husband, to whom she may or may not still be married - turns up dead in her dressing room, a threatening letter seemingly from Kitty in his pocket.
Emma’s certain her flighty but kindhearted sister-in-law has been framed. But who by? And why? From spiteful rivals to jealous boyfriends, the suspects are numerous. But as Emma investigates, she begins to untangle a deadly plot - and there’s something Kitty’s not telling her....

Dreadful narrator
I found the narration to be very odd. I don’t ask for perfect accents but the strange cadence and stress on the wrong syllable of straight forward words made it unlistenable.

Good book, indifferently read
This is an excellent book, but the reader seemed to struggle with the longer words.
