THE KILLING IN THE CAFE Fethering, Book 17

With fond familiarity, author Simon Brett narrates his story of murder and intrigue in an English seaside town. His narration showcases the dry wit of his writing and the understated humor that runs in conjunction with the plot. Two amateur sleuths living in the town of Fethering, Jude and Carol, find themselves at the heart of another murder investigation--this is the 17th in the series. Listeners follow their inquiries while also experiencing the petty squabbles that are part and parcel of small-town life. Brett characterizes the two protagonists with ease, allowing the straitlaced Carol's personality to contrast with the laid-back personality of Jude. Other characters are voiced with relish, making this a fun listen. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2017]
