About this listen

Dr Nell Ward is an ecologist, not a detective. But when she's the prime suspect in a murder, only her unique set of skills could help to clear her name....

In the sleepy village of Cookingdean, Dr Nell Ward is busy working in the grounds of a local manor house. Whilst inspecting an old tunnel, she did not expect to overhear a murder. As the only person with any clues as to what happened, Nell soon finds herself in the middle of the investigation.

Desperate to clear her name Nell, along with her colleague Adam, set out solving the murder using their skills as ecologists to uncover details no one else would notice. But it soon becomes clear that playing Agatha Christie is much harder than it might, at first appear....

The start of an exciting new cosy crime series—perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Fiona Leitch, Faith Martin and The Appeal.

The story started strong but it kept being muddled but silly character choices and the love triangle that wouldn’t stop. I wanted more amateur detective…it was a bit of a slog to get through in the end

Great narration kind of a meh story

Fun listen! Put a smile on my face several times while also bringing me to the edge of my seat.

Like the premise of titled personages trying to stay away from the privilege of their titles while engaging in their fields of profession. Light but entertaining.

The characters and the information on bats in the UK.

The narrator is very good. The story strains credulity with police procedures and the odd love story. The love story is mostly wondering looks as a woman who knows a lot about animal behavior seems to lack knowledge of human behavior.

Read for the mystery and ecology

I liked the investigative part of the story.
I disliked the teen angst style “romance” part of the story.
If one skips the “does he like me” inner monologues, it’s a good listen.

excellent story line ... a good read ... I'm looking to another cozy mystery series with good character development and I think I've found it. I'm looking forward to the next story. I find it so satisfying to not have to give up on the characters but rather to dig into another book to continue to enjoy the journey.

Wonderfully written and performed. I really enjoyed this delicious, complex heroine. She's very credibly written.

Great fun!

Nice voiced narrator makes this a respite from everyday life. Interesting scientific info, not sure police would focus on one suspect without more evidence, and a too quick solution to several murders.

Nice Little Story
