Summary: Wow!!! Bravo!!!
Comment: This is the first Ngaio Marsh I've bought for my personal library, having read most of the Inspector Lynley series written by Elizabeth George, and I have to say that James Saxon's narration makes this an enjoyable piece of work, so I certainly have plans to purchase more titles in the future!

Summary: For cozy fans and Shakespeareans
Comment: "Light Thickens" is Ngaio Marsh's last novel and one of her best. The mystery centers around a production of "Macbeth" at the Dolphin Theatre in London. Most of those involved in the play are superstitious to varying degrees about the bad-luck curse traditionally associated with "Macbeth." Even to say the play's name is considered dangerous, so it's referred to as "the Scots play." During rehearsals someone starts playing gruesome practical jokes. And somebody is sending out anonymous messages about a likable and talented child actor whose father is the Hampstead Chopper, a notorious serial killer confined in the Broadmoor asylum. One night, during a performance attended by Chief Superintendent Roderick Alleyn, a grisly murder involving a ceremonial sword occurs just before the final curtain. If you like traditional British cozies with mostly pleasant characters, you'll probably enjoy this mystery, and if you're also a Shakespeare aficionado, you'll enjoy it even more.
