    About this audiobook

    It's 1932, a time of crisis and doubt. Returning home on a luxury ocean liner after months abroad, Rowland Sinclair and his companions dine with a suffragette, a Bishop and a retired World Prophet. The Church encounters less orthodox religion in the Aquitania's chandeliered ballroom, where men of God rub shoulders with mystics in dinner suits. The elegant atmosphere on board is charged with tension, but civility prevails… until people start to die.

      I’m enjoying the setting and time period of this mystery series. The ‘religious’ aspect of the mystery did nothing for me, but I’m really enjoying the friendships between the main characters.
