The Case of the Missing Lady Audiobook Summary

When a six-foot-tall tan giant of man comes into Albert Blunt’s International Detective agency, Tommy and Tuppence–married couple and detective aficionados–are in for a treat. Not only has Mr. Stavansson emerged after a two-year Arctic adventure, but he’s lost his fiancee Hermione too. What telegrams and scraps of information Tommy and Tuppence can gather are all the hope the adventurer has in finding her. But this information leads the duo into dangerous situations, investigating secluded country houses in the dead of night, and that’s only the start of it….

Ok, this one is kind of funny.Tommy and Tuppence (as the title suggests) head off to investigate a missing lady. She's the fiance of some explorer dude who's a bit of an ass (doesn't like to talk to chubby chicks). She isn't where she said she would be when he returned from abroad, and he's getting worried. You know what I like about Tommy and Tuppence? I like that Tuppence is enough of a badass to shimmy up a drainpipe and sneak into a (suspicious) building. And I like that Tommy is enough of a badass to give her a hand up instead of insisting that she sit in the office where it's safe.Anyway, they do find the lady - (view spoiler)[she's at a weight loss clinic getting some sort of shady get rid of fat fast treatment (hide spoiler)] - and everything turns out alright.It's only about 30 minutes (ish) to listen to the audio version, so if you're looking for a shorty to kill some time, this would be a decent choice.This short is also collected as part of Partners in Crime. Honestly, I think these read better in that collection.Publisher: HarperAudioEdition: UnabridgedHugh Fraser - Narrator["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>

Super short Tommy & Tuppence story but worth the ending!

Delightful taleMy biggest disappointment is that there are too few of the adventures with Tommy and Tuppence. I love the lighthearted mysteries involving this cute post-WWII couple in England. This period mystery gives great insight to the post war country and the economic and social struggles in the late 1940s.

This was a great book. It was a nice short story. Like most Tommy and Tuppence books, I listened to it while doing some work. It was very easy to follow, well written and it kept you entertained until the end. The ending was actually quite comical and it was a fun end to what seemed like a dangerous situation.

Tommy and Tuppence are on the case again. A man has returned after a long journey to find his fiance gone. No one knows where she is or at least they are not telling him. Is she still alive? Has she changed her mind? Or has someone made her disappear? I found the ending funny. This story is cute and a quick read.

Here is another Tommy and Tuppence story and a rather humorous one too. It could easily have been a Jeeves and Wooster story. All I shall say is, 1) Typical Man and 2) Oh the vanity of women 🙂
