Murder at Kensington Palace

Wrexford & Sloane Mystery Series, Book 3

By: Andrea Penrose

Narrated by: James Cameron Stewart

Though Charlotte Sloane's secret identity as the controversial satirical cartoonist A. J. Quill is safe with the Earl of Wrexford, she's ill prepared for the rippling effects sharing the truth about her background has cast over their relationship. She thought a bit of space might improve the situation. But when her cousin is murdered and his twin brother is accused of the gruesome crime, Charlotte immediately turns to Wrexford for help in proving the young man's innocence. Though she finds the brooding scientist just as enigmatic and intense as ever, their partnership is now marked by an unfamiliar tension that seems to complicate every encounter.

Despite this newfound complexity, Wrexford and Charlotte are determined to track down the real killer. Their investigation leads them on a dangerous chase through Mayfair's glittering ballrooms and opulent drawing rooms, where gossip and rumors swirl to confuse the facts. Was her cousin murdered over a romantic rivalry...or staggering gambling debts? Or could the motive be far darker and involve the clandestine scientific society that claimed both brothers as members? The more Charlotte and Wrexford try to unknot the truth, the more tangled it becomes. But they must solve the case soon, before the killer's madness seizes another victim....

Mystery kept me guessing

Love the reader! Good story. Development of the characters. Looking forward to the next in the series.

I love this narrator!

I finished the first 2 in the “Wrexford & Sloane” series, so I continued on. The mystery wasn’t as twisted and explained as I thought the others were but I love the continuation of their relationship and the narrator is a dream to listen to. I’m moving on to book 4!

very enjoyable author & narrator

Good writing, good narration. I am enjoying this series of Regency era mysteries very much. I love a good story.

Excellent

Well this was excellent. Again a subject that makes me think of Frankenstein by Shelly. But one many through the years have broached

Murder, mayhem and Charlotte back into society. On to the next!

Enjoyable

Not crazy about the narrators sing-song delivery. Fun story and characters. Somewhat predictable. Bl bl
