Summary

Miss Marple meets Oscar Wilde in this new series of cosy mysteries set in the picturesque Cotswolds village of Bunburry.

In "Murder in High Places", the sixth Bunburry book, Oscar will brave the Cotswolds for the first time! Alfie has tried for months to convince his best friend to visit him - but when a glamorous High Society Party in honour of celebrated actor Dorian Stevens is announced, Oscar just can't resist. He is - after all - Dorian's greatest fan and can't wait to meet his hero. But the evening at the lovely Saville mansion takes a murderous turn ...

Nathaniel Parker, born in 1962, graduated from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and went on to join the Royal Shakespeare Company. His television career began in 1988 when he played Flying Officer 'Flash' Gordon in the LWT mini-series Piece of Cake. He is also the lead in the BBC series Inspector Lynley Mysteries, based on the novels by Elizabeth George. Nathaniel Parker has an extensive list of audio books to his credit, ranging from the classics of Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy to more modern writings and children's books.

Definitely improving!

I have now listened to all the Bunberry stories and although I wasn't sure at the beginning if this was going to be a 'cheap' Cherringham, I have grown to enjoy them more and more. I love the elderly two ladies who keep an eye on Alfie and Betty is an intriguing character of whom I hope we see more. The stories are well set and you can easily disappear into a well described Cotswold world -very pleasant to drift off to sleep to. Nothing is too dark, too violent, too complicated or too demanding -bring on the next one!
Nathaniel Parker is an excellent narrator and although I keep envisaging Alfie as Inspector Lynley, that isn't necessarily a bad thing!

Another superb story

Well, I was a little wary of this Bunburry saga of stories when I stated to listen to them. After the first book I was hooked. I have now listened enthralled to all six and am wondering when the next batch will be launched. The stories are wonderful, the orator just perfect, what a voice. Please hurry and release more!!
