Publisher's summary

Miss Marple meets Oscar Wilde in this series of cosy mysteries set in the picturesque Cotswolds village of Bunburry.

The picturesque Cotswolds village of Bunburry has been rocked by a series of burglaries, with dark suspicions over who is responsible. A discovery at the scene of the crime in the home of Bunburry's favourite senior citizens, Liz and Marge, leads amateur sleuth Alfie to fear the worst. He decides that this time, the matter should be left to the proper authorities. But with Constable Emma Hollis on sick leave, and Sergeant Harold Wilson as work-shy as ever, some of the villagers have other ideas...

Nathaniel Parker, born in 1962, graduated from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and went on to join the Royal Shakespeare Company. His television career began in 1988 when he played Flying Officer "Flash" Gordon in the LWT mini-series Piece of Cake. He is also the lead in the BBC series The Inspector Lynley Mysteries, based on the novels by Elizabeth George. Nathaniel Parker has an extensive list of audio books to his credit, ranging from the classics of Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy to more modern writings and children's books.

Nice next installment

This may be a bit more drama than mystery but there was character development and I was happy to have the next book after a wait. Enjoy!

Light and cozy series

When looking for a lighter mystery series, this one has been great.

I wish the author and narrator would do more books.

Wonderful if you love the characters

While it may not be a brilliant mystery, the ongoing relationships with all the characters make this another fun edition to the village of Bunburry. As always, Nathanie Parker brings the story alive. On to fifteen.

Seems shorter than normal

I agree with the other reviewers, although I dearly love alll the characters in this series, this story line was lacking! No substance! I. Love this narrators voice and his take on all the characters personalities!

Beautiful characters, plot and narration!

I only wish each of the charming books were longer! I'll be done too fast and I'll miss the characters! 😁
