Özet

Meet Monica Noble: the vicar’s wife with a taste for solving crimes.

Please note this book was first published as An Unholy Mess under Faith Martin’s pen name Joyce Cato.

In a quiet Cotswold village, all hell is about to break loose.

Monica Noble is throwing a party to welcome the village’s new residents. The guests include Margaret and her cheating husband Sean. Also on the list are a celebrity chef, an Oxford university professor, a 40-something divorcee, and the owner of a chain of gyms.

Then as the drinks are flowing, a shotgun blast rings out. One of the guests is found dead.

DCI Dury and Sergeant Jim Greer are soon on the scene and discover that the victim had many enemies. Almost all the guests harbor secrets and motives for murder. Even Monica’s daughter comes under suspicion.

When another villager is strangled to death nearly a week later, the stakes are raised.

Can Monica help the local detectives save her daughter and solve the murders before anyone else pays the ultimate price?

This is the first of a series of enjoyable murder mysteries with great characters and baffling crimes which will keep you gripped till the final minute.

Perfect for fans of classic whodunits by authors like Agatha Christie, LJ Ross, TE Kinsey, and J.R. Ellis.

Having really enjoyed the Loveday and Ryder series by the same author, I thought I would try this book. Unfortunately I found the story a lot less entertaining and enjoyable. It was okay but I will not go on to read or listen to any others in this series even though I suspect that there could be interesting dynamics between some of the characters in the future.

Okay

Undiscovered series by one of my favourite writers 🙂
Was drawn immediately into the scenario ……characters and their personalities.
The murder was a tricky one to figure out and the suspects entered and left the frame .
Thoroughly enjoyed this mystery and just stated No 2 in the series .

Loved it !

Gripping storyline from start to end and vivid insight into the lives of a group of people no one would ever suspect as being able to commit a murder or be involved in blackmail which resulted in not one but two murders Brilliant

Enthralling

I recommend you get past the first few chapters when I feel the story takes off a bit. There are a lot of descriptions and introductions early on that come across like a hurried list, but once you get past these its a more gentle listen. I have listened to a few books that take this approach from various authors recently and its a little irritating. I took some time to warm to the narrator, but actually quite enjoyed her voice by the end. Main irritant was that the plot is simplistic and some of the clues quite obvious however there are a few parallel threads to the tale which are interesting. Never heard anyone say SOCO (Scenes of Crime usually referred to as Sock-Oh) as Sew-Coe - which is a bit of a laugh out loud moment the first time. There is a suggested undercurrent of mutual attraction about some of the characters that is a bit unnecessary - perhaps that is something that will develop in later books but the story didn't need sexual tension between leading individuals nor the lazy stereotypical stroppy and irritable younger characters. That said, will go on to listen to the next in the series. Easy listen while you are doing something else and I have heard a few from this author now, & have found them OK overall.

I was very distracted by the abundant use of qualifying adverbs. The narrator was good and the story ok but I will avoid the author in future unless she or her editor reduce the constant adverbs. I am usually not a fussy grammarian.

Adverbs!!!
