THE ASSIZE OF THE DYING

This is the perfect audiobook for listeners who demand both brevity and quality. Two inventive, beautifully read, classic English detective stories by one of England’s best-loved writers will keep listeners intrigued. The two stories, one about a crusade to discover the murderer of an aging femme fatale and the other about the perfect crime set in a gracious country house, are suspenseful. They feature characters who are interesting and well depicted by Di Langford. Can murder ever be described as civilized? Listen to these vintage tales and decide.
