Buckingham Palace Gardens
Charlotte & Thomas Pitt • Book 25
by Anne Perry
Narrated by Jenny Sterlin
About This Audiobook
Buckingham Palace Gardens places Thomas Pitt at the literal center of power when a murdered woman is found in the queen's linen closet during a gathering of wealthy industrialists summoned to discuss an African railway scheme. The investigation requires both Pitt's official authority and his maid Gracie's undercover work among the palace staff, as Perry manages the delicate comedy and genuine danger of a murder case that could destabilize the monarchy.
Jenny Sterlin navigates the novel's tonal range, from the comic absurdity of the palace setting to the genuine moral darkness of what the murder conceals, with practiced facility. The Agatha Award-winning novel's behind-the-scenes view of the Victorian court is given its appropriate sense of spectacle without losing sight of the victim whose death sets everything in motion.
