Summary
Anty Boisjoly takes on his twistiest test to date in a tale of curses and crows, crypts and conspiracies, concealed corridors and clever crimes, delivered with a strong overpour of locked-room murder and buoyant Boisjoly banter.
The ancient curse of Carnaby Castle has begun taking victims again—either that, or someone’s very cleverly done away with the new young bride of the philandering family patriarch, and the chief suspect is none other than Carnaby, London’s finest club steward.
Anty Boisjoly’s wits and witticisms are tested to their frozen limit as he sifts the superstitions, suspicions, and age-old schisms of the mediaeval Peak District village of Hoy to sort out how it was done before Carnaby’s served his last scotch-and-soda.

Very good performances, amusing story.
I thought the story amusing and the performances very good. It didn’t make me laugh outlook and I didn’t find it hilarious.
The main character I found incredibly annoying, however I persevered to the very end, though it felt longer than the listen time by weeks!
Probably just not my sense of humour.

Great fun
Light hearted style which nevertheless is full of twists and turns that keep it interesting. I do love Vickers …I hope he’s going to keep appearing in these stories.

sherlock holmes meets sense of humour
Really enjoy the series. The main character does not take himself too serious, which gives the stories an extra dimension in my view.

Another rollicking tale of mystery, murder and really strong cheese
Boisjoly, ably assisted by his ancient valet and a precocious crow, crack another convoluted case. The wit and absurdity are a delight.

Funny, witty and sarcasm to boot
I really enjoy these stories, Wodehouse, Sayers all in one. Very good stories with lots of twists and turns. And to top it all a forgetful ageing valet! 🤣

Humour
I really like the witty asides. Escapism for fans of Wodehouse and murder mysteries. The whole series so far has been great

Excellent.
"The Case of the Carnaby Castle Curse" is another fantastic Wodehousian tale in the Anty Boisjoly series. I've enjoyed the three previous books, but this one was my absolute favourite.
