Palm Sunday brings spring to Crofter’s Green and a deadly secret.

When a postal van crashes outside the Cozy Cup, Dorothy agrees to hold a registered parcel for the shaken driver. Minutes later, the parcel vanishes and the postman is found murdered.

The only clues are an address in London and a faint cipher that points back to St Mary’s Church.

As Alice, Blake, Harry, and Evie follow the trail, the Homefront Sleuths uncover a chilling wartime plot that could leave the village in ruins. With blackout-darkened church bells, a father’s fate hanging in the balance, and a wedding at risk, they must stop a ruthless local ring before the first bombs fall.

Narrated by the brilliant Iona Campbell, The Saint Mary’s Cipher is a charming, suspenseful wartime cozy mystery filled with clever clues, village warmth, and danger close to home.

Another ripping tale in this series.
An enjoyable listen if you can dismiss the Americanisms which still jar , although the relentless pace and twisting plot make this a compulsive story .

Intricate plotting
