About this listen

 St Cedd's Church fête has been held in the grounds of Martingale manor house for generations. As if organising stalls, as well as presiding over luncheon, the bishop and the tea tent, were not enough for Mrs Maxie on that mellow July afternoon, she also has to contend with the news of her son's sudden engagement to her new parlour maid, Sally Jupp. On the following morning the village are shocked by the discover of Sally's body. Investigating the violent death at the manor house, Detective Chief-Inspector Adam Dalgliesh is embroiled in the complicated passions beneath the calm surface of English village life.©2015 Faber & Faber (P)2015 Faber & Faber Mystery Traditional Detectives

the plot was quite brilliant, stayed with me even when I wasn't listening to the book. and the narration is exquisite. I'm going to be reading many more...
