About this listen
Meet Eve Mallow: an American far from home, a professional busybody...and an amateur detective?
Seasoned obituary writer Eve Mallow has a new assignment: to tell the life story of famed musician Bernard Fitzpatrick. A chance to spend a few days in the sweet little village of Saxford St. Peter, walking the country lanes with her beloved dachshund, Gus, and meeting new people sounds like a dream. But it turns out that Bernard’s life was much less interesting than his death. On the day she arrives, news breaks that the charismatic cellist was the victim of a grisly murder. Could this quaint English village be hiding a dark secret?
As Eve starts to interview Bernard’s friends and colleagues, she finds that he’d ruffled a few feathers. In fact, from the keepers of the Cross Keys Inn to his own staff at High House, there’s barely a person in town who doesn’t have some reason to hate him.... Is one of the friendly villagers a cold-blooded killer?
Eve hoped Saxford St. Peter would be the perfect escape from her busy city life. But there is darkness even in the most sunlit of settings. And when a second body is found, Eve becomes certain that one of the people she’s met must be the murderer. She has never done any detective work before...but is there something in her notes that can crack the case?

Too drawn out
Very hard to concentrate on this book. I found myself looking at different sites and seeing what was for sale. I thought it would never end.

Fun listening
Love the story line and characters. Kept me entertained during long drives. Eilidh Barton’s narration is engaging. I’m already onto the next book!

Well performed but tedious
Decent story. Likeable protaganist. Very well performed - I could listen to Ms. Beaton all day long. However, the author explores every likely or implausible scenario in the thoughts of Eve Mallow to the extent that the reader is left bored, confused and in my case, ultimately angry. Why waste so much time and reader good-will filling the pages with discarded theories, abandoned conjectures about who did what ...? In the end, I ended up skipping several chapters and skimmed the last bits. Regrettable, because Clare Chase can write. Her editor did her no favours ... it should have been a lot shorter, and what is the excuse for grammatical errors - who instead of whom? Disappointed.

Very Little Action
Narrator was good and did well with quite slow moving and not very exciting material. Lots of speculation and talk but not much action in the story. Disappointed.
