About this listen

 When amiable old village eccentric Quentin Andrews dies, the good folk of Cherringham are astonished at the crowd that turns up to his funeral. But even more astonished are the beneficiaries of his will: Quentin has left a veritable fortune to whomever is the first to solve an intricate "Cherringham crossword". That puzzle is only the first of many that Jack and Sarah will uncover as they follow the treasure hunt for clues and learn the truth about who Quentin Andrews really was... and the biggest mystery of them all... was he - in fact - murdered?

Cherringham is a serial novel à la Charles Dickens, with a new mystery thriller released each month. Set in the sleepy English village of Cherringham, the detective series brings together an unlikely sleuthing duo: English web designer Sarah and American ex-cop Jack. Thrilling and deadly - but with a spot of tea - it's like Rosamunde Pilcher meets Inspector Barnaby. Each of the self-contained episodes is a quick listen for the morning commute, while waiting for the doctor, or when curling up with a hot cuppa.

For fans of Agatha Christie's "Miss Marple" series, Lilian Jackson Braun's "The Cat Who" series, Caroline Graham's "Midsomer Murders", and the American TV series "Murder She Wrote", starring Angela Lansbury.

Co-authors Neil Richards (based in the UK) and Matthew Costello (based in the US), have been writing together since the mid 90's, creating content and working on projects for the BBC, Disney Channel, Sony, ABC, Eidos, Nintendo to name but a few. Their transatlantic collaboration has underpinned scores of TV drama scripts, computer games, radio shows, and - most recently - the successful crime fiction series "Cherringham".

Now into its second season of 12 novellas, Cherringham is popular around the world and has been adapted as a series of audiobooks in Germany.©2017 Bastei Lübbe (Lübbe Audio) (P)2017 Lübbe Audio Cosy Mystery Fiction Crime Village Exciting Crime Puzzles

Why isn’t this a tv series?!?! So relaxing & enjoyable!
Trouble is that’s it’s addictive. You can’t just listen to one episode.

Why?????

Starts out interesting enough. A crossword puzzle must be solved to inherit a ton of money from a perhaps murdered man. Pretty unique setup. Then it all fizzles out. Story goes nowhere. Uninspired writing and totally uninteresting throughout.

The least enjoyable Cherringham Mystery Short so far.

Unique story setup does not save a dull episode.

Agatha Christie’s this book isn’t,dull uninteresting & with almost no plot a waste of time. I shall certainly not be listening to more by these writers
