About this listen

Lady Audley is universally adored: Beautiful, kind, and charming, she enamors all whom she meets. It is not until the strange disappearance of widower George Talboys that her behavior takes an odd turn. George's friend, Robert Audley, Lady Audley's nephew-in-law, is on the case; an upper-class layabout turned detective, he is determined to get to the bottom of things.

Mystery, mayhem, madness, and despair: Lady Audley's Secret is the gripping and suspenseful novel that has been branded "the most sensationally successful of all the sensation novels" (John Sutherland) and rivals some of Wilkie Collins' best books, such as The Moonstone and The Woman in White. Robert Louis Stevenson, Charles Dickens, and Henry James all admitted to reading Braddon's work with great enjoyment; Alfred Lord Tennyson professed to have read everything she ever wrote.

Kim Hicks gives an absorbing reading, full of charm and insight.

If you like your books set in Victorian England with a good mystery then this could be for you. My only criticism is it's a bit wordy at times, saying the same thing many different ways. I liked Robert very much and Sir Michael was a kind and gentle man.Really good narrator and all in all a fine listen

I began reading this as it was a requirement for a university class, but began to enjoy the story immediately! The narrator is consistent and interesting, and adds to the fascinating and suspenseful story. Highly recommend.

Astoundingly Entertaining!
