About this listen

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

There is shock in the local high school when Alison Shaw, a young, dynamic chemistry teacher, goes into a coma after being struck by a falling smart board. But is it an unfortunate accident or something more sinister? When the headteacher asks amateur sleuth Alfie McAlister to investigate, Alfie enlists the help of Liz and Marge, his fellow members of the Bunburry Triangle. And Noah, a pupil at the school and an aspiring detective, is also determined to help the investigation. As they delve deeper, they encounter an alarming number of possible suspects. Will they uncover the truth behind the dangerous events unfolding at the school?

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.

Another great addition to Bunburry Mysteries

I was very appreciative of this story since I thought the series was stopping with the previous book. Although Emma and Alfie mainly took center stage, I really enjoyed this one: so many laugh out loud moments mixed in with a few cringe "Oh no, so this is life in a small town" moments. (Alfie still needs to learn how to have conversations with Emma and stop jumping to conclusions!!) Although I figured out 'who done it' fairly early on, all the character interactions make it worthwhile to listen to, not to mention the narrator, as usual, is amazing. I am hopeful that there will be more Bunbury mysteries written in the future!
