The Review - Audiobook
A dark Regency mystery.
Evelyn Thompson isn’t much of an actor, but she’s an expert at keeping a stiff upper lip. When The Liberty Troupe are asked to perform for the Duke of Wellington, it seems like the chance of a lifetime. Their last production was a disaster, but with The Yorkshire Advocate covering everything from preparations to performance, a good review could mean big things for the troupe. But the pressure puts a strain on the players’ already fragile relationships.
Evelyn is struggling to stay on civil terms with her alcoholic mother, and her artist father seems to have picked up a troublesome commission. Then there’s the reporter who’s been assigned to the story – he’s terribly handsome, but he’s asking some strange questions… As opening night looms, pretending everything is going well won’t be enough.
