Audible is the way to go.
Overall good book. It got a bit slow in places but overall good mystery. Also liked seeing all the queens of detective mystery working together

I loved The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict. That book brought to life one main character, a time and place, and the emotions that entails. The Queens of Crime does not quite accomplish that - perhaps too many characters, perhaps a story of a time and place complicated with a mystery, and perhaps the main point of a male-centric world overwhelming the characters and story. Nevertheless, I am fascinated by the historical finds that the author develops and look forward to see what she tackles next.
