Summary

A grand house in the country, three rival sisters, and a dead man in the garden… It sounds like a case for Lord Edgington.

On a trip to meet a family of well-known authors in the English countryside, Lord Edgington of Cranley Hall (along with his well-meaning grandson and their very loyal golden retriever) is faced with the puzzling case of an elderly man thrown from a window, a life-long rivalry, and a death foretold in mystery writer’s novel. Will the famous sleuth be able to solve the mystery before it's time for tea?

A Novel Way to Kill is a novella-length mystery from the “Lord Edgington Investigates…” series of 1920s whodunits. It is a standalone story and can be read at any point in the series but comes between the seventh and eighth novels chronologically.

The Lord Edgington Investigates... audiobooks are narrated by George Blagden from the TV shows, Vikings, Versailles, and the Oscar-winning film of Les Miserables.

novella

excellent short story to read as a standalone or to fit between book 7 and 8. Good plot, keeps you guessing up to the end. Narration is the usual superb quality. My only down point is i feel short stories and novellas should be priced less than full novels. But that is a general observation not directed at the author but audible itself.
