About this listen
Harcastle Court is hollow. The east wing is shut under dust sheets, the footmen have been let go, and the family can no longer pay for the house they live in. But eight guests are coming for the Michaelmas shooting weekend, because one of them holds the mortgage, and Mrs. Dorothea Pargeter has three days to make an empty house look full.
For twenty-six years she has kept the keys, the bell board and the linen ledgers. She knows which stair creaks, which door sticks and which of the family's secrets have been folded into the sheets. She does not expect to be the one who finds a guest dead in the locked muniment room on the first night, with the flooded roads cutting off the village and the only people who could have reached that room standing in her own servants' hall.
With the constable stranded and the family frightened of the truth, Mrs. Pargeter does what she has always done. She counts. A missing pillowcase. A bell that never rang. A dust sheet that was moved and put back wrong. Every answer is somewhere in the way the house is run, and every answer points closer to someone she would rather not name.
A quiet, clever, fair-play mystery for listeners who like a locked room, a long weekend and a heroine who has never once raised her voice. A historical country-house mystery.
