Brat Farrar
by Josephine Tey (Peter Davies, 1949)
audiobook read by Carole Boyd (Bolinda, 2017)
The broad sweep of the mystery is predictable, the mechanics of the murder left improperly explained, yet this remains an oddly compelling read, full of nuanced characterisation and gently poetic depictions of post-war British country life (or the elite horsey subsection thereof).
