About this listen

Invited to a Private View of the work of controversial artist Denzil Willoughby, the good citizens of Fethering are not quite sure what to expect. And it certainly turns out to be a lively affair, culminating in a confrontation between Willoughby and his ex-lover, followed by a heated argument with the gallery owner and a rival artist. But what no one could have anticipated was that the evening would end in sudden, violent death. While the police seem happy to accept an official verdict of suicide, Fethering residents Carole and Jude remain unconvinced. Deciding to investigate further, Carole and Jude soon discover that the answers lead only to more questions – and that at least one Fethering resident has a dark secret to hide.

Brett Never Disappoints

I have listened to and/or read every book written by Simon Brett. His plots are great, his descriptions vivid, especially when he narrates. A must read for every Mystery aficionado.

Cozy listening

I really like Simon Brett’s detailed description of Carol Seddon snd Jude— the two protagonists — and their lives. The fingering of the murderer is a bit ‘dramatique’ but makes some sense. Simon Brett reads so well, and while it is rushed (as some reviewers have complained), just change the reading speed to .9 and all is well. Excellent in fact.

Cozy

Any additional comments?

More of the same - not highbrow reading or anything, but its fun to follow along with the Featherington crowd while doing the day to day...

Good Story, Ending a Surprise!

It all unraveled a little too fast at the very end - a surprise perpetrator - seemed as if the other suspects were tumbling like dominoes - but Brett pulls it out with as satisfying epilogue.

I'm still enjoying the characters of Carol and Jude as they muddle along with a murder case they have taken it upon themselves to solve since the police are ready to call it suicide and close the case.

I appreciate that the books from Isis Publishing have a chapter point at the end of each chapter since I tend to fall asleep listening - that makes it easy to get back to where I left off.

Brett does a superb job of narrating his own books. Reliably good cozies - no one does it better!

More vulgar than usual

I usually really enjoy the Fethering series but this particular book was more vulgar than usual.

Narrator change from prior books in series :-(

I don’t care for Simon Brett’s narration. Loved the prior narrator in series. I hope one day they can be re-narrated

Entertaining English village mystery:)

I have enjoyed this series! It's been my introduction to Simon Brett; I will definitely search for more Feathering mysteries. Also, great narration, which in my opinion, is rare when done by the author himself.

So very well read

The author is very much in command of the English language and, for text alone, it makes for a very colorful and entertaining read. And his narrating style is extraordinarily good. I really enjoyed the journey of the story alongside him.

never disappoints

The Fethering series is nice to follow - language and characters never vulgar! Simon Brett isn't the best reader, but a fabulous writer, in my opinion.

Simon Brett does not disappoint

This is a great series. Carole and Jude are fresh and at their best in this latest installment of the Fethering series. I have read all of the books available in the Audible library. I only that all of the books in this series were available.
