À propos de cet audio

Miss Marple meets Oscar Wilde in this new series of cosy mysteries set in the picturesque Cotswolds village of Bunburry.

Alfie McAlister has retreated from London to the peace and quiet of the country to recover from a personal tragedy. But an accidental death - which may have been no accident - reveals that the heart of England is far from the tranquil backwater he imagined. After arriving in Bunburry, he is co-opted as an amateur detective by Liz and Marge, two elderly ladies who were best friends with Alfie's late Aunt Augusta. And it is not long before their investigations take an even more dramatic turn...

In "Murder at the Mousetrap," the first Bunburry book, fudge-making and quaffing real ale in the local pub are matched by an undercurrent of passion, jealousy, hatred and murder - laced with a welcome dose of humour.

Nathaniel Parker, born in 1962, graduated from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and went on to join the Royal Shakespeare Company. His television career began in 1988 when he played Flying Officer 'Flash' Gordon in the LWT mini-series "Piece of Cake". He is also the lead in the BBC series "Inspector Lynley Mysteries", based on the novels by Elizabeth George. Nathaniel Parker has an extensive list of audio books to his credit, ranging from the classics of Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy to more modern writings and children's books.

This story is a nice addition to the Costello & Richards cosy Mydworth and Cherringham Mysteries series. Like its predecessors, Murder at the Mousetrap is short, well written and excellently narrated. The only flaw that I found was in the sequence of the chapters when Chapter 28 became Chapter 7. It was not correct after that.

The story is like almost every other murder mystery that takes place in small town England. Well written and somewhat entertaining.

Alfie McAlister moves from London to a small town where he gets involved with the local theatre company which is putting on Agatha Christie's the Mouse Trap. During the lead up to the production there is an accident resulting in death. Two busy body old ladies decide it is murder and enlist an unwilling Alfie to assist in their investigation.

As with all these sort of cottage mysteries everybody has secrets everybody has motives. The style is quite enjoyable and the characters are interesting enough that you actually think about their motivations
