(4.5 stars; 20 reviews)

This is another story written by Walter Stewart under the pseudonym of J.J. Connington. His character of Sir Clinton Driffield, the chief constable, is challenged with solving crimes committed in the maze of the Shandon family estate. The Shandons are a successful if flawed set of brothers but all is not well beneath the surface of the privileged lives of their extended family. Jealousies and ambitions cause trouble as they often do. Sir Clinton and his faithful associate Wendover endeavour to unravel a mystery as complex as the maze itself. - Summary by Howard Skyman (7 hr 13 min)

Reviews

decent mystery


(3.5 stars)

it is worth the listen. it is a tad more circuitous than i care for but it was very well written and read. The reveal was done in a unique way.

This was fun. Multiple good suspects. I wish that the motive was more clear, but still a good yarn.
