About this listen

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 the boy's mother is convinced it is murder and when Harry and Kat investigate, they find the poacher's life was not as innocent as he made out...

London calling!

When a prominent family's daughter flees sleepy Sussex to seek a career on the stages of a glittering West End, Harry and Kat are asked to check in on the young woman. But the two of them soon discover that there is a much bigger danger to the woman and her family than mere acting dreams being crushed...

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 The 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.

The stories were short, great for an hour drive, and enjoyable. I usually figured out 'who done it' before the end of the story, but there were details that were a surprise as to exactly how the crime came about. I definitely plan to continue with this series. (Shout-out at the narration: amazing job, as usual!)

enjoyable cozy mystery

Please. Stop using voice actors who CANNOT mimic an American accent. Nathaniel Parker is good with English accents, not surprising. But his pathetic attempt at an American accent (Lady Mortimer) is cringe-worthy. Ugh

Stop trying to do an American accent, Mr Parker
