Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

David Timson delivers an exceptional performance that elevates 'The Floating Admiral,' making it a standout among audiobooks. His nuanced portrayal of Inspector Rudge and the other characters adds layers of complexity to their interactions. The narrative is cleverly constructed, peppered with twists that kept me guessing until the very end. However, some sections feel slightly slow-paced, which might detract from the overall momentum for some listeners. Despite this minor critique, 'The Floating Admiral' remains a compelling listen, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and her contemporaries who appreciate intricate mysteries.
