Evan Evans is a young police constable who has traded in the violence of city life for idyllic Llanfair, a Welsh village tucked far away from trouble. Nestled among the Snowdonia mountain range, Llanfair looks to Constable Evans like a town forgotten by time, but he quickly learns that even the bucolic countryside has its share of eccentric - and deadly - characters.

From the authors of the best-selling series "Cherringham". This compilation contains episodes 1-3. "A shot in the dark": Sussex, England, 1929. Mydworth is a sleepy English market town just 50 miles from London. But things are about to liven up there considerably, when young Sir Harry Mortimer returns home from his government posting in Cairo, with his unconventional American wife - Kat Reilly. "A little Night murder": A young poacher is found shot dead in the woods of a grand estate near Mydworth. A sad accident it would seem.

But Matt was not satisfied that the real murderer had been caught. Over 25 years later, Matt gets a photo in an unmarked envelope. It's of the Gibbet Fen crime scene.

Publisher's Summary
Constable Evans joins Sergeant Watkins to follow a trail of clues that leads them to the South of England and then to France, and finally to the conclusion that a dangerous killer is loose in Llanfair, in Rhys Bowen's fourth Evan Evans mystery, Evan and Elle.
There is both excitement and dismay in Llanfair when a new French restaurant opens. The glamorous owner, Madame Yvette, tries to win over the locals, and everything seems to be going well until a string of fires plagues the town. One night the restaurant burns down, and a body is found in the rubble.

Easy listening
Narrator does an awesome job with the Welsh, though his French accent is a bit stereotypical.

My mother recommended these books to me! Read them in the Early 2000’s. Listening to them now and enjoying them just as much and missing Mom. She was quite the reader!

Better in Print
Even though it's the fourth in the series, it's the first I've encountered. It's a nice, straightforward mystery that gets more complicated as the plot progresses. It's set in a fictional town located around Llanberis in Wales, and having spent some time in the area, when real towns and mountains are mentioned I was able to imagine it. But I wish the book set the scene a little better with more description. Overall, I enjoyed it,
My problem is with the narrator who projects his voice as if he were onstage, his French accent is awful, and while he gets the proper lilt of the Welsh accent, it is often tinged with an Irish brogue, which I found off-putting. I'm interested enough to want more, so, now I'll read the series in chronological order, but I'll read it on my Kindle.

Welsh accent
I found the fake Welsh accent and the incorrect pronunciation of Welsh names irritating and could not finish the book. It would have been better if he dropped the fake accent and continued in his normal accent. Very amateurish and disappointing narration.

Always easy and fun
I like these books for the same reason I like Agatha Christie. They’re lighthearted and easy listens. When I want a book but can’t make up my mind, I always go for one of these.

Charming, atmospheric, intriguing!
I love these books! The narrator adds an important dimension that would be missing if you read it to yourself silently. Each book is better than the last.
