À propos de cet audio

From New York Times best-selling author Anthony Horowitz comes a new novel featuring ex-editor hero Susan Ryeland, set to solve another murder mystery

Farlingaye Hall is a beautiful hotel in Suffolk on the east coast of England. Unfortunately, it is also the site of the brutal murder of Frank Parris, a retired advertising executive. Stefan Codrescu, a Romanian maintenance man, is arrested after police discover blood spatter on his clothes and bed linen. He is found guilty and sentenced to eight years in prison. It appears to be an open-and-shut case, but there is more to it than meets the eye.

Alan Conway, the late author of the fictional Magpie Murders, knew Frank Parris and once visited Farlingaye Hall. Also, the third book in Conway’s detective series, Atticus Pund Takes the Cake, was based on the hotel. Cecily Treherne, the daughter of Farlingaye Hall’s owner, has read the book and believes the proof of Stefan’s innocence can be found in its pages.

But now...Cecily Treherne has disappeared. So Conway’s former editor, Susan Ryeland, leaves her own hotel in Crete and travels to Suffolk to investigate the murder and Treherne’s disappearance.

Masterfully intriguing, brilliantly clever and relentlessly suspenseful, Moonflower Murders is a deviously dark take on vintage English crime fiction in which the reader becomes the detective.

Just like any other books he wrote. Thorough and informative, I very much like the idea of book within a book.

Another great book

The main book is very good and is narrated very well but I could not stand the imbedded book.

Having read or listened to Book 1 & 2 I can’t believe how quickly the hours flew by. Thoroughly enjoyable romp through two murder mysteries that are well written and impressively performed. I look forward to discovering more of this authors stories.

Praise worthy

A very different approach to a mystery novel. I really enjoyed the interweaving of the stories.

Unique

Oh Susan, getting herself into trouble again but what a fantastic listen this was. I like how we got to know the real life story and then we dive into the novel by Atticus Pund.

The evolution of the story and Susan's journey was well received and looking forward to the rest of the series. Worth the credit/listen if you enjoy other novels by Anthony Horowitz.

Another Great Who Dun It

I loved it. The story is complicated enough to require attention, with interesting, colourful characters. Both narrators are spot on (I love Leslie Manville in books and on the screen).

Very, very good!

I love the idea of a book inside a book. The Atticus Punt mystery is always way more pleasant than the Susan Reyland one. One thing that stands out in both Magpie Murders and this one is the sheer negative portrayal of LGBT characters. I would have dismissed it, had it not happened in both books. Somehow the books treat sexual minorities differently. Also, I should have warmed up to Susan, but there is something about her that puts me off. Earlier, I had thought I didn't like the narrator's voice, but it's not her. It's the character. Nonetheless, I will recommend this book. It's a good story.

Love both stories but for me it concentrated on 2 kind of nastier characters a little too much (in the Atticus Pund storyline) once that was moved on I was happy

Enjoyable

A compelling story and extremely well narrated. Horowitz is the master of murder mysteries and this one is right in his wheelhouse. The clues are all there, they're just very subtle and challenging to pick up.

Another excellent book by Anthony Horowitz

Love the story within a story format, it’s a double murder mystery that I can never seem to predict.

If you’re into murder mysteries, I suggest you give this series a try!

Adore this series!
