Thank you so much for the fascinating overview of the story and bio of Baroness Orzy whom I recently discovered as the author of ‘The Teahouse Detective’ series. Your narration was also very pleasant. ❤

Omg 777 views! I was born in 77 and it’s a mystical number 7 days in a week, colours in a rainbow, chakras, 7 natural wonders of the world, 7 seas…… I am trying to not make comments too long! Really though I could go on and on… I know my numerically and all things spiritual and there’s a huge gap in the market for spiritual fiction and I dropped out of uni bc it was rife with drugs and I had avoided alcohol bc dad drank and stopped he had a personality transplant! For the better so I came back to London but you can’t stop what you came to Earth to overcome, it’s destiny! An accidental od in my 20s put me firmly on the spiritual path which is why I also adore both the channels! Spiritual fiction is sometimes used in supernatural/paranormal although I don’t like the horror bit but now I am used to it! But I swear I was listening to this or Jasper le Strange and I fell asleep and I had bloody sleep paralysis!! Anyone else had that after watching or listening to horror?! Thank you Tony! You are so talented and yes, a human being! Thank God the beings in my sleep paralysis were human (I have heard of people seeing otherwise! lol 😮‍💨🫶🦋🫶

It wasn't until halfway through the story, when Mary is addressed by name, that I knew she was female. It was written so adoringly regarding Lady Molly that I assumed she was a male.

@@er6730lol 😂 Trust me you will soon become a fan! There’s so many lady Molly stories that they become as addictive as hell! Or heroin (hell isn’t addictive) but how could we not know if we hadn’t read this before and I have read them all! I used think I’d have preferred to been born there or then I mean but we wouldn’t even have had the vote and were considered men’s property and if we didn’t marry then flawed but I think it is these books that people listen to for escapism and that’s not where you wanted reality! But if she wasn’t a “lady” or upper class would she still have had that freedom???!!! 🙏🌅🦋 🤍💜🩷💛🩷🩷🤍💜

Quite a few comments here about Hugh Frazier as a favorite, but you, sir, are in a league of your own now. I have listened to you read ghost stories & have fallen nicely asleep. But, hearing you read this detective story, I'm fully engaged & wide awake at 3:00 am! Enjoying the various accents that you narrate with ease, one from another, back & forth. Brilliant.

Why Mr Walker, you have the most wonderful interpretation of Sherlock’s voice. I don’t even know how to describe it - it’s so good, almost bored-sounding, but you know he’s not, and he holds his s’s and the ends of some words. I really like your reading of Watson and Holmes.

Interesting take on the "good king" being above being bought. I'm thinking of Edward the Confessor, as opposed to Henrys VII and VIII. All that power concentrated in one person certainly lends itself to everyone else being trampled and exploited at the strong man's whim. He doesn't have to be bought if he can just take it.
