This is the fourth Francis Bacon mystery I have listened to in the last 6-8 weeks. I very much enjoy the series and I be patient for book 5&6 to be issued on Audible. Like the other books in the series, the mystery is strong and keeps you guessing. The characters are well formed and I found it easy to invest their individual arcs. As always, Trumpet is my favorite. Funny. Spunky. Full of fun. I always cheer when she appears in the books. Highly recommended for people who like mysteries with a little wit and good historical background.
