The Mystery on the Midnight Ferry | Detective Audiobook

Hello, my dear friends, and welcome to Tea Time Mysteries. I’m Edward, and I’m so glad you’re here with me tonight. Before we begin, tell me — are you listening with a warm cup of tea nearby, perhaps by a softly lit lamp? I always love imagining the quiet corners from which you join these stories. And if you enjoy elegant mysteries like this one, do remember to subscribe. Now… let us step inside. Cross the Channel on a fogbound autumn night, where polished brass gleams under electric light and the sea presses darkly against the hull of the SS Caledonia. Among the refined first-class passengers is Sir Alistair Montague, financier and patriarch, a man accustomed to control—over markets, over family, over reputation. Having recently announced yet another revision to his will, he carries with him a wake of resentment disguised as civility. When he retires to his cabin before midnight, few expect the crossing to become memorable. By dawn, he is dead. His cabin is bolted from within. A glass of brandy rests half-finished on the desk. No intruder could have boarded mid-channel. The sea itself seems to guarantee impossibility. As suspicion turns toward inheritance, jealousy, and long-standing rivalries, Poirot observes the small discourtesies others dismiss: a drink not to the victim’s taste, a bolt imperfectly engaged, a key that travels too conveniently from hand to pocket. Shared alibis feel rehearsed. Helpfulness feels deliberate. Beneath the veneer of first-class politeness lies something colder—a past financial scandal, a ruined partner, a daughter who entered service under a shortened name. Revenge has crossed the Channel alongside them, dressed in impeccable manners. In this tightly confined maritime mystery, the isolation of open water sharpens every glance and gesture. The locked cabin is no miracle of impossibility—only of misdirection. Elegant, atmospheric, and classically structured, The Mystery on the Midnight Ferry is a tale of pride and patient grievance—where civility conceals calculation, and justice arrives with the morning tide. 00:00:00 Chapter 1 00:10:46 Chapter 2 00:19:39 Chapter 3 00:28:23 Chapter 4 00:37:45 Chapter 5 00:48:20 Chapter 6 00:58:16 Chapter 7 01:08:19 Chapter 8 01:18:48 Chapter 9 01:27:53 Chapter 10 Disclaimer: This story is a creative tribute inspired by the brilliant worlds of Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes.
