The Dalehouse Murder by Francis Everton ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Dalehouse Murder by Francis Everton audiobook.

Genre: mystery

When Francis Jeffcock accepts an invitation to a summer tennis tournament at the Merchester Lawn Tennis Club, he expects lazy matches, brisk gossip, and the comfortable routines of a well-bred circle. Instead, the weekend turns chilling when Stella Palfreeman, a dazzling young woman at the center of too many glances and private quarrels, is found dead under circumstances that suggest something far more deliberate than misfortune. Detective Inspector Allport arrives to impose order on the uneasy gathering, but the case refuses to stay neatly inside police procedure: every conversation hints at a hidden motive, every courtesy masks a grievance, and the smallest social detail becomes a clue. As Jeffcock watches the investigation tighten around friends and acquaintances, he is drawn into a web of rivalries, misdirection, and carefully kept secrets. An enigmatic physician, Dr. Wallace, adds an unsettling edge to the inquiry with his sharp observations and clinical interest in human behavior. Set against the deceptively genteel backdrop of lawns, clubrooms, and country-house propriety, The Dalehouse Murder is a classic whodunit that turns polite society into a pressure cooker where anyone could have something to hide.
