Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Simon Mattacks delivers a stellar performance in 'A Baffling Murder at the Midsummer Ball,' where his rich, layered narration perfectly matches the complex layers of Kinsey's narrative. His ability to modulate tone and pitch is evident as he navigates between the lighthearted jazz numbers and the tense moments that hint at impending danger. The pacing is brisk yet thoughtful, ensuring listeners remain engaged throughout the 7+ hours. However, the plot occasionally feels a bit contrived, relying heavily on coincidence to move forward. Despite this minor quibble, Mattacks’ expertise in bringing each character to life—especially the jazz musicians and their complex relationships—ensures that the listener is thoroughly entertained. This audiobook is a must-listen for fans of mystery with a touch of music.
