Lu Newman I listened to the Guest List - Lucy Foley on Audible. They had a different actor for each character and really brought the story to life. Despite a few inconsistencies with the story, I really enjoyed. I will be interested to read/listen to some of her books in the future.

Linda Death on the Cherwell by Mavis Dorien Hay! A golden age mystery set in a 1930s school in Oxford long out of print that was republished and repackaged by Poisoned Pen for their new British Library Crime Classics series. There are only three by Mavis but there are lots of other titles. And I want to get them all!
