Story4.5 out of 5 stars 24
The Honourable Christopher Fancot, on leave from the diplomatic service in the summer of 1817, is startled to find his entrancing but incorrigibly extravagant mother on the brink of financial and social ruin - and more than alarmed to find that his twin, Evelyn, has disappeared without trace. Christopher - Kit - is forced into an outrageous masquerade by the tangled affairs of his wayward family: his rigid uncle, Lord Brumby; the surprisingly wily Sir Bonamy Ripple; the formidable old Lady Stavely and Evelyn's betrothed, Cressy.

The Priory may look ramshackle in appearance, but Peter, Margaret and Celia are totally charmed by their newly inherited country house. But there's more to The Priory than meets the eye. Left empty for years, hardly a single person has set foot inside, and down in the village, the locals whisper of a ghostly figure that roams the halls. When a murder is committed, the new owners start to fear the rumours are true - but is their new home really haunted, or is someone trying to scare them away?

Very good
The naration was well done, and story was captivating. I love historical romances where the heroine reforms a wickedly bad rake, and this book does it very well. I will happily listen to more books by this author if they become available.

One of Heyer's best stories
Lovely Heyer tale, well-narrated by Michael Drew...EXCEPT for his portrayal of the hero. I almost didn't finish it because I so intensely disliked the voice he choose for Vidal, but I am glad I did continue after all. A satisfying story.

delightful characters
A rollicking continuation of the story begun in These Old Shades...the characters are as lively and witty as ever and the escapades are great fun even the second and third time listened to.

Can’t go wrong with Georgette Hayer!
Very nice story, would have enjoyed a little more at the end. The man’s voices were too similar, loved Leonie!

Heyer sublime as always
This is the second book in the Duke of Avon series and Heyer is peerless. Her unusual heroes and heroines, quirks of humor, and attention to period detail have already been well documented and discussed.
So I will just venture to say that the narrator falls a little short, here. The Duke of A sounds too feline, Fanny sounds like a doddering dowager. To be sure, these characters are all 25 years older than they were when they were youthful characters in These Old Shades, but somehow, when reading the book in print, their voices still sound fresh and vigorous (Fanny had been a youthful madcap, a flirtatious beauty! and still retains some giddiness. The delicious interview with Mrs. Challoner, for instance).
This narrator comes close, but his characters aren’t as engaging as they should be.

One of my favorie Heyer stories
Not even sure why. Archetypical story of how the love of a good girl redeems a bad boy. Which, in real life, never works and causes many unhappy "good girls" to be exploited.
I think it's partly because of the development of hilarious side characters, rather like in a Shakespeare comedy.
Not my favorite reader. Don't think he gets some of the male voices right. A bit too harsh and shouting instead of menancing.

Great story, not so great narrator
Love this story, wonderful characters. Narrator somewhat annoying, especially with Vidal's interpretation, which does not sound young, impetuous, or sensuous.

Good listen
Michael Drew is perfect for the Devils Cub. Wish more books were read by him. Far superior to most of the women readers. They do a very poor job on male voices.
