Summary

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

The picturesque Cotswolds village of Bunburry has been rocked by a series of burglaries, with dark suspicions over who is responsible. A discovery at the scene of the crime in the home of Bunburry's favourite senior citizens, Liz and Marge, leads amateur sleuth Alfie to fear the worst. He decides that this time, the matter should be left to the proper authorities. But with Constable Emma Hollis on sick leave, and Sergeant Harold Wilson as work-shy as ever, some of the villagers have other ideas...

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.

Wow, that escalated quickly!

I adore The Bunburry Mysteries and the characters. Nathaniel Parker is an absolute pleasure to listen to his performance is wonderful. The story was interesting and very manic in a way. Alfie is a lovely bloke but can't catch a break. As a guy who is also in his 40's I do sometimes feel like Alfie is very immature and naive. There were a number of times in this book when I just thought, you complete idiot Alfie. He needs to sort out his love life and frankly it's been 14 books and it's a tragedy... Tragedy when the feelings gone...

Okay….

Love these normally, but agree with others..this was leaning to romantic, and leant a bit too far for me.
Nathaniel brilliant as always, but story weak as a mystery..
