A SILENCE IN BELGRAVE SQUARE Below Stairs, Book 8

Anne-Marie Piazza gives a spirited performance in this historical mystery. She embodies the spunkiness of Kat Holloway, a cook and mother who turns amateur sleuth to save her beau, Daniel McAdam, a police informant for Scotland Yard. When McAdam goes undercover, working for a viscount in Belgrave Square, Holloway uses her cunning to keep him safe. Piazza has a delightful British accent, and her resonant timbre reflects Holloway's resolve to discover a connection between Daniel's case and the blackmail letters being sent to society women accusing them of reprehensible acts. Piazza's skillful range of voices for secondary characters adds humor and tension to this fast-paced story, making for a listening experience that is both charming and intriguing. M.F.
