Narrating his own book, Simon Brett delivers a performance that’s both amusing and eerie, perfectly capturing the tone of Major Bricket's quirky observations and the sinister undertones lurking beneath his humor. The story unfolds with an engaging pace, weaving together clues and suspects in a way that feels fresh yet familiar to mystery fans. However, some scenes can feel rushed, leaving minor plot points unclear. Despite this, the overall atmosphere is captivating, making for an immersive listening experience that combines Brett’s literary prowess with his knack for creating unforgettable characters.
