Scales of Justice (Abridged) Audiobook

" Similar to Miss Marple in the characters and landscape. "

" Brilliant title, and a really nasty story. Not easy to guess who did what and a lovely collection of characters. One of my favourite Marsh novels. "

" Not a bad story in itself - just didn't like who the murderer turned out to be. "

" A serviceable English gentry mystery featuring Roderick Allyn. There is a proper limited pool of suspects and a suitable batch of clues, but no real chemistry with the characters. It fits the expected formula but is nothing special. "

" Really enjoyed this; the more inspector Alleyn books i read, the more i like the character ! He's s not quite as lovable as Point, but still a lovely character "

" Undemanding fare but these books are so enjoyable. My second hand copy had a map of the village at the front and that is always a plus point for me. "

" What a great British mystery done with superb attention to detail. Ngaio Marsh gives her mysteries those little twists and turns and even though you might guess who DONE it, she always surprises you with the HOW. "

" Lots of red herrings in this story. It is one of Ngaio's old-fashioned stories; the kind I like best. Who killed the Colonel? His wife? His wife's lover? The old lady, to protect the family name? Read and wonder. "

" Good mystery -- interesting characters, good plot. "

" I'm SO addicted to Ms. Marsh right now. Love the quaint village, the silly characters, the way the English give their cats first AND last names. "

" I thought I had it figured out but I didn't. The villain is the sort that usually can't be the villain because s/he is too obvious. That was a neat trick. "

" Hurray Ngaio Marsh! This was a fun English Cozy. I think I'm adding Ngaio Marsh to my go-to list. "

" I really liked this book. Another English-speaking mystery author to read! "

" Another well-written entry in the series, although the murder plot itself is a little overly elaborate. Still fun to read, though. "

" It had all the potential and none of the fun of a cosy mystery. "

" I just love this series. The books are not as fluffy as Christie (who I also love), but not as agonizing as the Thomas Lynley books by Elizabeth George. Really, a perfect balance. This one didn't include his wonderful wife, Troy, but the relationship between Alleyn and Fox is wonderful. "
