When does this book become the murder mystery it is supposed to be?

I am now at Chapter 5 and am wondering when this boring preamble finishes and the actual crime story begins. I am only keeping on listening as I have read some of the sequels and enjoyed them but am not sure if I can keep listening much longer.
