Publisher's Summary:

In a shocking scandal, the likes of which has not been seen in the English aristocracy since the 18th century, the Duke of Denver stands accused of the foul murder or his sister's fiance, shot through the heart on a cold, lonely night at Riddlesdale Hall in Yorkshire.

The Duke's brother, Lord Peter Wimsey, attempts to prove Denver's innocence, but why is the Duke refusing to co-operate? And what does his sister, Lady Mary, know about the affair?

Trying to reveal the truth, Wimsey uncovers a web of lies and deceit within the family and finds himself faced with the unhappy alternative of sending either his brother or his sister to the gallows - until he himself becomes a target...

Clouds of Witness

I did enjoy this book but got a little lost and had to keep going back to try to follow the story. Not the fault of the book, just too busy whilst trying to listen. As usual Ian Carmichael does a brilliant job as well as the others that lend voice to the production.

Good cast and abridging

Well worth listening to. The story is good and the running time is just right.

Great performances all round

All of the Wimsey radioplays are great, and this is no exception. The casting is perfect, and the voice actors all bring across the right feelings. Only the gunshot sound effects really seemed ridiculous...

Excellent performance as ever, sad technical issue

Ian Carmichael & Co. are excellent, as ever. Brilliant performance and a good storyline. Unfortunately slight glitch in the download - two chapters are repeated which is slightly irritating. But the performance still hugely enjoyable.

Couldn't finish it even though it's an hour

I knew I was purchasing old radio programs but if you have any sense in your head at all these will drive you crazy for their simplicity. They are not good examples of sherlock holmes - edited and cut and done in a silly fashion with irritating sounds effects. Did not enjoy.

Publisher's Summary:

Patrick Petrella is now installed behind a new desk, as Superintendent of an East London dockland area. Though this marks a well merited step up the career ladder, the paperwork of modern policing makes Petrella itch to be out on the streets again.

There is also the nasty taste left by the manner of his predecessor's departure. Petrella detects patterns of rival gangs at work and uncovers a paedo-porn ring which stretches across the North Sea to Amsterdam's sleazier side. Soon he finds himself up against one of the most unscrupulous outfits in London and he is in no doubt about which course of action to take.

Michael Francis Gilbert ( 1912- 2006) is recognized as one of the most versatile British mystery writers. He was a lawyer in London for many years and at one point had Raymond Chandler as his client. He wrote almost every sort of mystery and thriller. He wrote police procedurals, spy novels and short stories, courtroom dramas, classical mysteries, crime novels, and almost every possible combination of these, all with the same competence and dry, detached wit. Gilbert was a founding member of the British Crime Writers Association, Named Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America and was named Number 24 on The Telegraph's "50 crime writers to read before you die".

annoying voice

I found the reading voice unpleasant. It gets even worse when the reader puts on voices to separate the characters. Try before you buy.

Edward Raleigh animates this classic Sherlock Holmes mystery with a dazzling performance. In Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Adventure of the Bruce Partington Plans Holmes' brother Mycroft encounters some missing plans related to a military submarine that are a matter of national security. Holmes takes on the case to solve the mystery and protect his homeland from a submarine attack. Raleigh's excellent characterization and compelling voice add an even deeper layer of suspense and adventure to this classic mystery.

Members Reviews:

Who-Done-It Puzzler

This is another of Sherlock Holmes' excellent adventures. His use of observation and Spock-like logic are fascinating and presents a challenge to try and beat him to the solution. Brother Mycroft is a welcome visitor in this story as he does not often visit his brother Sherlock, an event so rare causing Holmes to remark 'A planet might as well leave its orbit.' Dr. Watson is, again, an excellent narrator laying out the events and subsequent dialogue in an orderly and entertaining fashion. I highly recommend this puzzling who-done-it.

Trains rides can be deadly!

When brilliant brother Mycroft needs Sherlock to find the missing plans that are vital to the nation, and solve the tragedy of young West's death, it came at a perfect time to get our hero out of a fog-encrusted funk and send him and Watson on a great adventure to see whether or not the conspiracy involved top men in the government. Leave it to Sherlock enjoy every moment of the search. His enthusiasm for mystery feeds anyone's craving for a good story.

Its Sherlock

It's Sherlock, what else needs to be said. If you like Sherlock you'll like it, if you don't you probably won't. I liked it.

Good Book

Never having read this book before, I was unsure of what to expect. I found that this is quite a captivating book that leave the reader not wanting to put it down. Would recommend for someone who has a bit of time to kill...you won't want to put this down!

Excellent!

THANK YOU to whoever is responsible for getting these classics in eBook form. I have loved re-reading all that I have downloaded over & over, just like when I was a kid.

Classic book but poor narration

As most classic book, it is somewhat outdated, naive, brilliant and enjoyable at the same time. I did not like this narrator.

Great classic series with a wonderful narration

This was my first dive into the works by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I listened to a few samples by other narrators but Edward Raleigh really made the characters come to life. There is one short story from this set that has a stand in narrator. He is good as well but I was glad when it switched back to Raleigh for the subsequent stories.

very enjoyable - but narrator switch& odd division

Who is the other narrator? Could it be Jason Isaacs?

There is a terrible cut mid-way through a story (actually mid-way through a sentence) dividing Parts 1 and 2.

Terrific...a good set of stories

This is an enjoyable set of stories that blend together with the companionable Dr. Watson "narrating". Fun!

Interesting

I quite enjoyed the short stories and found myself trying to solve the mysteries and beat SH to the punch.

The narrator is very entertaining
