Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Ciaran Saward’s narration shines, particularly in distinguishing Felicia Grant's subtle yet determined voice from the other characters. His pacing keeps the narrative flowing smoothly, never dragging despite the multiple suspects and plot twists. The story is a delightful mix of small-town charm and mystery that draws you into Felicia’s world—complete with historical details that add depth to the setting. However, the abundance of red herrings at times feels a bit heavy-handed, hinting at an overreliance on plot complexity rather than character development. Overall, 'Death at the Auction' is a lively and engaging mystery for fans of cozy whodunits.
