Angel with Two Faces: A Mystery Featuring Josephine Tey Audiobook

" My favourite of the series. Sensitive but still unflinching. Same characters well supported by new faces. Beautiful descriptions of Cornwall as well. The twists were a little transparent but that didn't take anything away from it. "

" I really liked this. I enjoyed An Expert in Murder but it took me a long time to get to this. Cornish setting, with real outdoor theatre, was fabulous. "

" A mystery set in a small English village where Josephine (the writer of Daughter of Time) has come at the invitation of her friends. She arrives after a funeral of a local golden boy and inadvertantly gets caught up in the intruge and secrets that have strained all the ties that bind the once closekint community together. Warning: not for the squeamish as one of the major storylines is, well, a bit on the creepy side, but a well written book. "

" This series, featuring mystery author Josephine Tey as the main character, is surprisingly engaging. "

" I read Nicola Upson's earlier book in this series, where she takes the detective author Josephine Tey and makes her a character in a murder mystery. It's a clever idea (and others have done it as well) and this story isn't written with a lot of sophistication, but the setting is Cornwall, which makes up for a lot. "

" Moving too slow for me. Stopped reading. "

" The Cornish coast of England is the setting for this very involved mystery involving family secrets that distort the actions of several familes of long standing roles in the community. The interweaving of the characters lives is done with finesse and the twists and turns are abundant as more than one person meets their demise at the hands of another. Sad and poignant; puts the reader much in mind of how hidden actions can still produce pain and suffering for others, long after the events occured. "

" I've been to the Minack too - great story, love her characters "

" Grand story, compelling mystery, great protagonists and some of the nastiest situations I've read. I generally avoid mysteries that harp on the miseries of life and the tangles caused by sordid choices but this author is so good that I just cringe and carry on. "

" A good 'whodunnit' book. Set between the wars, it's a 'Midsummer Murders' type of murder/mystery story. I found it an enjoyable, easy read. "

" I did not see the ending coming. I found it all very sad. But I still enjoyed the book and am looking forward to the next one in the series. "

" I really didn't care for this one. I thought it was hard to follow and I wasn't able to relate to anyone in the story. "

" The book had promise, but too much sexual dysfunction. "

" The cover looked like a Maisie Dobbs, but Josephine Tey makes an indifferent sleuth - I was before her on several points... "

" Wonderfully drawn characters, great with the sense of place, rather odd perception/ready forgiveness of a murderous act in the service of a generally, radically-frowned-upon-by-society love. "

" I keep thinking I am going to like these mysteries better than I do. Josephine Tey is one of my favorite mystery writers and these are based on her life so somewhat interesting for that reason. But I don't think I read others in the series. "

" It was a good mystery with an ending/twist I didn't see coming, but there was an awful lot of incest, children dying tragically, and terrible abuse of women that was probably not necessary except for shock value. "
