Thrilling Stories Of The Railway
Five short crime stories featuring amateur sleuth and railway expert Thorpe Hazell. Fiction's first speciality detective Thorpe Hazell uses his locomotive expertise to solve the audacious and ingenious crimes plaguing the Edwardian railways. Produced for Radio 7 by Fiona Kelcher, and read by Benedict Cumberbatch. Readings are not my favorite but these are great. Guess I found out that I like short story readings and I love the era.
