Still Dead

Cherringham. A Cosy Crime Series - Mystery Shorts 38

By: Matthew Costello, Neil Richards

Narrated by: Neil Dudgeon

When the Veteran Head of Botanicals at the world-famous Cherringham Gin Company is suddenly found dead at the Distillery, it seems at first a strange accident must have taken place. But some family members aren’t convinced, and Jack and Sarah are asked to investigate by old friend, solicitor Tony Standish. Soon they discover clues that the eccentric genius behind the famous gin may have been murdered - with a rich cocktail of motives in play. Can the bizarre mystery be solved and the killer found before he strikes again?

Set in the sleepy English village of Cherringham, the detective series brings together an unlikely sleuthing duo: English web designer Sarah and American ex-cop Jack. Thrilling and deadly - but with a spot of tea - it's like Rosamunde Pilcher meets Inspector Barnaby. Each of the self-contained episodes is a quick read for the morning commute, while waiting for the doctor, or when curling up with a hot cuppa.

Co-authors Neil Richards (based in the UK) and Matthew Costello (based in the US), have been writing together since the mid-90s, creating content and working on projects for the BBC, Disney Channel, Sony, ABC, Eidos, and Nintendo to name but a few. Their transatlantic collaboration has underpinned scores of TV drama scripts, computer games, radio shows, and the best-selling mystery series Cherringham. Their latest series project is called Mydworth Mysteries.

The narrator of the audiobook, Neil Dudgeon, has been in many British television programmes including the roles of 'DCI John Barnaby' in Midsomer Murders and 'Jim Riley' in The Life of Riley. He is also known for his film roles in The Nativity, Sorted and Son of Rambow. In 2012 Dudgeon starred as 'Norman Birkett' on BBC Radio 4's Afternoon Play series written by Caroline and David Stafford.

We so look forward to each story in this series

It's good to see new characters being introduced into this series to keep it fresh.
Each story is clever and well written. Please keep them coming!

Great as usual

Wonderful series, both charming and engaging. Oddly comforting. I guess that’s the point of the “cozy mystery“, but unlike others this does not have a cloying quality.

Cherringham- One of my favorite series

I have listened to this entire series and just love the portrayal of life in a small English town. The stories and characters are well developed & entertaining. Highly recommend.

Lovely series, lovely little village

I love this series: narrated by Neil Dudgeon (John Barnaby of "Midsomer Murders"), the reader
is enveloped into the human relationships in a rural Cotwold village, and the evil lurking in the
background. This is about a murder in a local craft gin factory... just fun.
I wish there were more...

Another great story of the Cherringham dynamic duo

Love these great little mysteries. Sarah & Jack make a great Nick & Norah snd the stories are quick, easy to listen to puzzles. Neil Dudgeon is a great narrator.
