Publisher's summary

Jack's a retired ex-cop from New York, seeking the simple life in Cherringham. Sarah's a Web designer who's moved back to the village to find herself. But their lives are anything but quiet as the two team up to solve Cherringham's criminal mysteries. This compilation contains episodes 25 - 27.

Secret Santa
Bill Vokes has played Santa at the children's Christmas show for years. But with the show just hours away, he vanishes with no explanation. The whole village is baffled. Did something bad happen to loveable Bill: upstanding citizen, churchgoer, life and soul of the party and the holiday season?

Scared to Death
When classic horror movie star Basil Coates becomes the victim of a series of scary pranks, the local police put it down to a crazed fan. Just pranks, after all ... But with Halloween only days away, the spectre of murder suddenly visits the ghostly Coates mansion on the hill outside Cherringham - and Jack and Sarah find themselves caught in a mystery worthy of Basil's spookiest roles ...

Death on a Moonlit Night
When the boss of the big local DIY outlet is murdered on a moonlit night, all the evidence points to the store's junior manager. And when police retrieve the murder weapon from the Thames, the manager goes on the run. But Jack and Sarah are not at all sure of his guilt. Can they uncover the real killer before it's too late for the runaway suspect?

Love these series, love the reader!

I was so excited to hear there was another Cozy Crime story series and I enjoyed it just as much as the previous 24 stories. Rarely predictable with interesting characters. The evolving friendship of Sarah and Jack has been so well described and has continued to hold my interest. Neil Dudgeon is a wonderful reader of these series, practically breathing life into the characters. Anxiously looking forward to the next series.

just love this series!!

I enjoy every story, and look forward to the next!! The narration is wonderful too!! Highly recommend!

Such fun

These mysteries are truly “cozy.” Enough mystery to keep interest and enough action to keep things moving. Have really loved seeing the development of the characters over the series. Will certainly keep listening. Keep them coming, please!

Great Story

One of the best in this series I have read. Really enjoyed it! Very exciting with a great surprise ending!

Always Charming

As always the charming characters and places come to life. Fun mysteries and top notch narrating!!

Always great

Perfect blend of cozy and crime <3
Narrator still very nice to listen to, nails both the relaxing and tense parts.

Excellent as always!!

You’ll love Cherringham, Jack, Sarah and all the characters, they’re just the perfect combination for this little English village!!

Addictive

Love these . Cozy so a bit predictable but that’s just the right note for this genre.

A fun series!

I'm loving this series, and so far, I only have one complaint. To end ep# 23 with a cliffhanger, and not reveal what happens in ep #24(or 25, 26, & 27), is downright cruel.
That said, this is a fun series, and Neil Dudgeon's narration is first rate.

Entertaining

Love the Cherringham stories, they never disappoint. I always enjoy these stories because they entertain me.
