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 31 - 33.

TRAIL OF LIES:

Last year at Cherringham High, and for three girls that means facing the School Summer Challenge, a grueling fifty-mile hike across the Cotswolds, through thick woods, over steep hills, camping each night under the stars. But when one of them disappears in the middle of the night and is found dead in the morning, most believe a terrible accident has taken place. Was it really an accident? Jack and Sarah aren't convinced - and soon discover that secrets and lies can have terrible consequences ... and always leave a trail ...

DEATH TRAP:

When Edward Townes - famed writer of novels about knights and maids, and castles and conquering - attends a medieval launch party for his latest book, he arrives ready to do more than celebrate. But party night brings a blizzard, a once-in-a-century storm that sees Townes staggering home, alone ... only to be found dead the next day. With Cherringham cut-off and the blizzard still raging, Jack and Sarah start investigating. Their questions reveal that many of those still stranded in the dark village have secrets. And Townes' killer is still in the village ...

CLIFFHANGER:

When a hiker falls from a cliff edge while walking the Cotswolds Way, it seems like no accident. The more Jack and Sarah investigate the walkers on the trail that day, the more likely it seems that danger is still afoot. Is there a potential killer in this Cherringham tour group? And when will he or she strike again?

Co-authors Neil Richards (based in the UK) and Matthew Costello (based in the US), have been writing together since the mid 90's, 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, the successful crime fiction series Cherringham, and - most recently - the historical series 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.

Always enjoyable

When you just want to escape and listen to an enjoyable story, this is the series to listen to. Highly recommend.

The most enjoyable series!

I have found this series to be thoroughly enjoyable as a result of it being a light-hearted series without all the explicit language and "adult" situations most other writers seem to find necessary in mysteries lately.

a bit predictable

A Charming series, as always... but this was the first compilation I felt was predictable.

Love these stories

Great plot and characters. Enjoy listening to this series. Always looking forward to the next book in the series.

wonderful

I can't say that I have ever enjoyed a series more than this one it's. the combination of Jack and Sarah is perfect.

Make more, please.

Love listening to these pleasant stories with characters you can identify with. I listen over and over without concern if there are children with me.

Always fun

Love the two main characters! They are like old friends. They make it so fun

Good, easy-going fun

Good, but please learn to pronounce Adirondack & Quantico properly or Americans (like me) will have trouble buying that Jack is American. Usually this is done well in the series- just not with these two terms. Also, I am not from New York and wonder if they're maybe mispronouncing/referencing New York specific characteristics?

Love this!

I hope more of these series will come out. It's my favorite. Thank you bunches.

Love the Cherringham series

I love these stories and they are just the right length as I drive to my mom’s or kid’s homes.
