About this listen

A gripping British cosy crime mystery with a mysterious death and a village full of secrets...

MAISIE COOPER IS NO DETECTIVE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

BUT SHE MIGHT JUST SOLVE A MURDER...

Maisie left the picture-perfect village of Framlington years ago. But when her brother asks for her help out of the blue she soon finds herself back among the windy lanes and open green fields. But it's not the family reunion she hoped for - upon arrival she learns that she's too late. Stephen is dead. And not just dead - murdered.

Frustrated by the slow police investigation headed up by handsome Sergeant Wingard, Maisie determines to start asking questions herself. In a village where everyone knows everyone, surely someone has some information about Stephen. But the longer Maisie stays, and the deeper she digs, the more she begins to sense something sinister at the heart of the village. What secrets are the residents so desperate to keep hidden? And what exactly was her brother going to tell her before his mysterious demise?

And when another death rocks the community, Maisie fears that she needs to catch the killer before they catch her...

A great, old school murder mystery with good pace, some subtle humour and great attention to detail. The narration was rather wooden, but strangely didn’t lessen the enjoyment of the story.

Thoroughly entertaining!

Too many characters and the story did not grip me. Don't think I'll get any more books by this author

Enjoyed this first one in the series. Set in the 1970’s in a village setting. The writing is well done and styled, with an interesting and intriguing plot. Well thought out and developed characters, including the ones you don’t like. The setting gives you a good resemblance of village life. Looking forward to carrying on with the next in the series and seeing how our main character develops.

Interesting and intriguing mystery

First in a series that I feel may become a favourite for me .
The account unfurled to introduce a varied cast of characters ….
then became a quite riveting “ who done it “ .
Central character was believable and very human ! sometimes walking into situations
that raised real tension .
So ….thoroughly enjoyed it all and will be following up with book 2 .

Very Enjoyable
