The Brooklyn Murders by G. D. H. Cole ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

from The Book Reader · host The Reader Studio

The Brooklyn Murders by G. D. H. Cole audiobook. Genre: mystery On the night Sir Vernon Brooklyn turns seventy, his country-house birthday dinner is meant to be a triumph: the celebrated theatrical manager gathers relatives, friends, and a future son-in-law under one roof, and the talk turns to money, marriages, and the shape of the Brooklyn legacy. But old resentments simmer beneath the toasts, especially around Joan Cowper, Sir Vernon's strong-willed niece, whose unwanted engagement to the smooth John Prinsep has become a family battleground. By morning, celebration curdles into shock when Prinsep is found brutally murdered in his study, and a second death soon follows, raising the chilling possibility of an impossible crime. Superintendent Henry Wilson of Scotland Yard is called in, and what begins as a straightforward inquiry quickly becomes a meticulous unpicking of alibis, inheritances, and private grudges inside a household where everyone has something to gain and something to hide. As Wilson pressures witnesses and tests theories, Joan and other members of the family are forced to confront how far greed and pride can warp loyalty, love, and truth.
