Publisher's Summary

August 1911. Emily Hardcastle and her inimitable lady’s maid Florence Armstrong are enjoying a fine summer until Harry, Lady H’s brother, turns up out of the blue with a mystery for them to solve.

A routine parachute test at a local aeroplane factory has gone horribly wrong - with pilot Dickie Dupree plummeting to his death. Harry is certain there is more to this ‘tragic accident’ than meets the eye, having discovered that someone at the airfield is leaking top secret intelligence to foreign rivals.

In between strolls to the Dog & Duck and planning for the annual village show, the daring duo dust off the Crime Board and go undercover at Bristol Aviation. With international powers investing heavily in aeronautics, the stakes are high - sky high - and the suspects soon mount up.

Can Lady Hardcastle find the culprit before someone else falls down dead?

Critic Reviews

Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award

“This audiobook should have come with a warning: Listen at your own risk. If others try to pause it, you may snap their heads off in frustration. As Lady Hardcastle and her lady's maid, Flo, return to spying for England in the summer of 1911, narrator Elizabeth Knowelden enhances the story full of witticisms and a clever plot by immersing listeners in the lives of these two characters. Listeners will catch Flo's excitement as she discovers that her newest job requires investigation at an airfield where someone was recently killed.” --AudioFile Magazine

Absolutely Delightful

I came to like audiobooks or rather gave them a second chance after the first time I heard Elizabeth Knowelden's performance on the very first of this book series. And I do love the story of these two fiesty ladies that T. E Kinsey has written but I think it's Elizabeth Knowelden's performance that to me has brought them both to life so completely. I could have never imagined the different accents of the characters in this that enriched my experience of the story.
Coming to this particular addition to the series I rather loved the story and enjoyed the performance so much.

A delightful romp

Those fascinating women with their flying machines! Spies, parachutes, performances abound with great zest & gusto and all the familiar faces do a splendid job in a brand new adventure.
The charming Lasy Hardcastle and her daringly diminutive maid are back with an action packed aerial show! Fabulous 👌🏼👏🏼
