THE MITFORD TRIAL The Mitford Murders, Book 4

Narrator Rachel Atkins describes the darkening world of rising fascism in which the Mitford sisters grew up. When newlywed Louisa goes on a cruise as a lady's maid to Diana, Unity, and their mother, listeners will clearly envision the surroundings of both the upper-class characters and their servants. The surprise visit Louisa receives from her husband, Detective Sergeant Guy Sullivan, turns into a working holiday when a murder occurs onboard the ship. Atkins succeeds in portraying the sinister Nazis and the equally nefarious English followers of fascist Oswald Mosley. She clearly expresses the frequent internal monologues by Louisa and Guy. Listeners stay right with them. V.M.G. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2021]
