Summary
Story is narrated by John Fothergill West, who tries to discover why the tenant of Cloomber Hall, General Heatherstone, is nervous to the point of being paranoid. Why are his fears becoming stronger every year at the fifth of October? And why doesn't he let his children leave home? This is a great mystery novel with a sharp twist at the end.

always like a conan doyle mystery but the narration is appalling. Only listened to 1 minute couldn't take anymore. Prefer to read the book than listen to that voice

Could not understand the heavy accents. Too hard to follow the stroyline

The narration was boring. Perhaps the story was boring. After the fourth chapter, the plot was still unclear. At that point, I decided to rate it and discontinue.

Clever storyline. Question of vengeance vs revenge and that you should take into consideration the periods view of culture and beliefs.

The accents and voices are very bad , so bad I couldn’t listen to the book and gave up after 1st chapter. I gave the narrator one star as I could not give a minus one

Sir Canon-Doyle has done it again. A typical Sherlock Holmes mystery, but without Sherlock Holmes. The narrator was excellent. He has kept the voices different enough that you can easily tell which character is speaking without be told. I enjoyed this book and recommend it.

Story was fairly predictable but still held my attention. I loved the Scottish accents even when I didn't understand them.

I assumed that this book had Sherlock Holmes story by AC Doyle but was pleasantly surprised when it had nothing to do with it! A superb book, great narration and especially loved the Scottish accents. A real thriller and supernatural, keep in suspense up until the very end.

Stopped listening as accents indistinguishable at times.
