About this listen

Marian Stamford moves to her dream home: a snug little cottage in a Dorset village where nothing ever happens. She only wants a quiet life, a home for her unlikely family of two nieces and one troublesome kitten.

Before long, things take a darker turn. A man breaks out of prison, leaving the villagers rattled.

What are they afraid of?

Marian isn’t one for idle gossip. But she can’t ignore the telltale signs that someone has been sneaking into her garden at night.

And then there’s the gruff stranger she’s seen hanging round next door. Who is he? And what does he want with the farmer’s wife?

It’s up to Marian find out.

But in a village full of secrets, the truth can be hard to find.

I loved all of it. The story and the narrator’s voice were a perfect match which was a treat because often I start to listen to a book and have to abandon it because of the narrator.

A story slowly unfolding but not boring or silly.

While T he narrator read the story very well, was unsuitable. The voices were more for people in their 80s and so another younger and more vibrant reader should be found for this book

Sweet cosy mystery
