Publisher's Summary

The first audiobook in a brand-new Victorian mystery series featuring steward Matthew Rowsley and housekeeper Mrs. Faulkner as an engaging detective duo.

Newly appointed as land agent to the youthful Lord Croft, Matthew Rowsley finds plenty to keep him busy as he attends to his lordship's neglected country estate. But he's distracted from his tasks by the disappearance of a young housemaid. Has Maggie really eloped with a young man, as her mother attests - or is the truth rather more sinister? What's been going on behind the scenes at the grand country estate...and where has his lordship disappeared to?

Teaming up with housekeeper Mrs. Faulkner to get to the bottom of the matter, Matthew uncovers a number of disturbing secrets, scandals, and simmering tensions within the household. Something rotten is going on at Thorncroft - and it's up to Matthew and Mrs. Faulkner to unearth the truth.

Profile Image for Jan B

I particularly loved the characters, and the friendship amongst the four senior servants in this book

I did not like the narrative the narrator style. The loud, enraged enunciation he often uses is jarring, nonetheless it is such a great story, I could Overlook that to give this book a high rating. I eagerly await the next installment of this new series.
