The Curved Blades by Carolyn Wells ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Curved Blades by Carolyn Wells audiobook.

Genre: mystery

At the showplace Long Island estate known as Garden Steps, wealth is a performance and every visitor has a role to play, until the household's formidable mistress, Lucy Carrington, is found dead in her private rooms. She is discovered bizarrely posed for display, dressed in finery and glittering with jewels, with unsettling details at the scene that hint at more than one method of murder. The local police face a maze of motives and alibis, and suspicion quickly spreads through Lucy's inner circle, including her charming niece, a devoted social secretary, a cousin entangled in financial affairs, a sharp-eyed maid, and a mysterious man styling himself a count. To cut through the elegant lies, celebrated criminologist Fleming Stone is summoned, bringing patience, logic, and an instinct for the small inconsistencies others miss. But the case turns dangerously personal when Stone finds himself drawn to the very person the evidence seems to circle. As interviews tighten and secrets surface, Stone must balance heart and duty before the killer can vanish behind the estate's polished manners and cultivated beauty.
