Release of the Riviera Royale

UPDATE to the UPDATE: Reckoning at the Riviera Royale is now live on Audible at https://www.amazon.com/Reckoning-Riviera-Royale-Boisjoly-Mysteries/dp/B0CLMPPZS5

UPDATE: It turns out that new titles can take as much as thirty days to reach the shelves of various platforms. I’m sorry that I didn’t know that when I announced the 13th as the launch date, but I’ll leave it as it is because a) the real date is now ‘sometime in the next thirty days’ and b) it’s my mistake and I should own up to it.

Production is now complete on the audiobook of Reckoning at the Riviera Royale and it’s due to make itself heard on the 13th of October (that’s Friday the 13th, quite deliberately — the gods of gaffes and scheduling have been so kind to us we felt it just had to be some sort of sign).

The talented Tim Bruce returns, again and again, as a wide cast of accents and eccentrics, to narrate Anty’s fifth impossible poser in which his mother features among the accused when what appears to be a simple matter of a clown dressed as a mouse trampled by a kind-hearted elephant turns out to be a case of locked-room murder.

This milestone also represents a return to regular releases of Anty Boisjoly in audiobook. Next will be The Case of the Case of Kilcladdich in time for Christmas. This also means a closer collaboration between author and actor, including a new tradition of quick and quirky bonus features (keep listening after the conclusion of Reckoning for The Curious Encounter at a London Counter).

Production on Reckoning at the Riviera Royale was done by Raconteurs LLC (​​https://raconteurs.co.uk/) and their calm, confident competence is why we’re meeting the release schedule without a single hiccup or hitch.

  1. It is now 13 oct and no Riviera that I can find . Can’t find on audible and amazon only lists ebook. Please, please help me find this Anty audiobook. They are fabulous..

    • Hi Betsy — I really appreciate this kind comment because it gives me a chance to say that it turns out there can be as much as a thirty day (!!) delay before titles appear on certain shelves such as, it turns out, Audible. I wish I’d known that before I went about town blabbing about the 13th.
      I’m sorry about that and it’s entirely my fault but of course something had to go wrong in a project that otherwise went off without a hitch or twitch. I’ll keep my eyes on the various stores and update this message at the first sign of Reckoning.

      • I so enjoy your books. I have listened to them several times and they still make me laugh. Looking forward to a new one. Also, Tim Bryce is just the BEST narrator for the series. Not having him as narrator would be like listening to a Cussler book narrated by someone other than Scott Brick. You both are just doing such a terrific job

      • Hi Philip,
        I understand completely. Rather have it than some silly glitch that people who live my town can’t get it. With the good/bad world of technology anything can happen. Worth the wait. Keep us all up to date please.
        Betsy

  2. I found it on Barnes & Noble on Oct. 13th. I waited one more day to see if it would show on Audible since I had a credit and when it was still not available there, I went back to Barnes & Noble and got it! So happy!
