About this listen

When the crime scene is pure coincidence and there’s no evidence, how can you prove it was murder?

Ella Bridges faces her most challenging investigation so far when the vicar dies suddenly at the May Day fete. But with evidence scarce and her personal life unravelling in ways she could never have imagined, she misses vital clues in the investigation.

Working alongside Scotland Yard, will Ella manage to unearth the clues needed to catch the killer before another life is lost? Or will personal shock cloud her mind and result in another tragedy?

A Clerical Error is set in 1930s England and is the third audiobook in the Yellow Cottage Vintage series. ‘Miss Marple meets Ghost Whisperer,’ this series is perfect for fans of golden age murder mysteries and cosy mysteries.

perfect way to relax without too much over stimulation. Well narrated and a pleasant story, if rather unbelievable with the police interaction, a civilian woman in post war times would never be telling senior detectives how to go about their work... but it is fiction after all.

a lovely easy listen

I absolutely adore all the books in this series. Although they are not my usual choice I have become very pulled in by the main characters - specifically Ellie the protagonist. The series is set in rural England in 1936-39 and tells of a gentler more relaxed pace of life while still having a complex murder investigation at the heart of them all. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys cosy murders!

Gorgeous easy listening

I can often just need a gentle book to settle my mind and to get me off to sleep in the wee hours. The stories are very well thought out and set in the most English of settings and reminder of years ago. I love them, keep on writing J New.

Lovely book to relax to.
