recording of The Mystery of the Sycamore by Carolyn Wells. Read in English by Sharon KilmerInstead of prison time, former governor, Samuel Appleby, sentences his former rival, Daniel Wheeler to imprisonment on his homestead with a very strange addendum. He then endeavors to convince Mr.
Wheeler to endorse his son’s candidacy for governor with a promise of commuting his sentence. In the meantime, Samuel Appleby is murdered in Wheeler’s home. The discovery of the identity of the murderer has many twists and turns filled with love, devotion, gumshoe dialog, and weird circumstances that will delight the listener in a most unusual way.

Finished it in four sittings. Usually takes me weeks to get through an audiobook. Says a lot about how gripping The Mystery of the Sycamore is.
I almost skipped this one because the title didn't grab me. Really glad I didn't. The content inside is miles ahead of what the description suggests.
The way Carolyn Wells uses stories and examples to illustrate points is really effective. Doesn't feel like a lecture at all — more like a conversation.
I've been in a reading slump for months and this finally broke it. Something about The Mystery of the Sycamore just clicked and now I'm back to listening every day. Grateful for it.
