I love this series

This series is so enjoyable and James Gillies is perfect as the narrator. Please hurry up with the next audio in the series. You are too far behind the books that have been released and I enjoy the narration too much to read them.

pretty good

Narrator is fantastic at putting and keeping you on the edge of your seat. His inflection and consistent character voices are a welcomed departure from some others. I found myself wincing and feeling nervous as if I were in a movie theater😁. Storyline will keep me coming back.

A body in the library by Ashley Gardener .

read by James Gilles as always wonderfully portrayed.

The plot goes on for Captain Lacey, his ability to seek out and conquer puzzels , and solve crimes is very intruiging to listen too.
He can mix with the high and mighty of the land, while dealing with all kinds of lowley folk to solve the crimes.
Enjoyed this book thanks Ashley Granger and particularly out narrator for his performance here.

Another terrific installment in the series!

Would you consider the audio edition of A Body in Berkeley Square to be better than the print version?

Yes! James Gillies brings the characters and story to life, and adds another dimension to the wonderful storytelling.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

As we've come to expect with the Captain Lacey series, there are plenty of twists and surprises to keep you glued to the story. I would strongly encourage any new readers to start with the first book in the series and read them consecutively, as the recurring characters all develop in each book. Since this book focuses on Colonel and Louisa Brandon in particular, knowledge of their backstory and their relationship with Captain Lacey is especially important.

What about James Gillies’s performance did you like?

James Gillies is a phenomenal narrator. He is indispensable in the reading of this series. He has done a wonderful job narrating the previous books, but the dramatic nature of some of the scenes and character interactions in this book are especially well done.

Any additional comments?

I absolutely loved this book, and it is probably my favorite in the series so far. Ashley Gardner and James Gillies make a terrific author/narrator combo!

Wonderful story

This series gets better with each book. Lacy is a complicated but honorable man. Sometimes too much so, but great guy.

Loved this book except

I hate the character Cologne Brandon and how he is narrated which is just awful.

Another great addition to the Captain Lacey series

So glad I tried this series...I love it. I think James Gillies does a fantastic job and I hope he continues to narrate the whole series. I still enjoy reading but I have come to appreciate what a great narrator can add to the experience as I believe is the case here. I like that Gabriel is in his early 40s, has some aches and pains from his war injury, and is basically just a good guy. I gather that he is quite handsome as well but since this is told in first person POV, you never hear Gabriel saying so. But by this 6th or 7th book, it is becoming obvious that others think so. For me, I enjoy the characters I have come to know (especially Gabriel), the historical setting and the mysteries to be solved in this entire series.

more insight into our Captain

narrator always excellent. makes the story even more pleasurable to experience.
Lacey's former mentor Branden is arrested for murder. who Lacey discovers actually killed the man is someone close to Grenville; not someone in a familiar way but I'll let the reader discover the connection.
