Sidney Chambers, the Vicar of Grantchester, is a thirty-two year old bachelor. Sidney is an unconventional clergyman and can go where the police cannot.
Together with his roguish friend Inspector Geordie Keating, Sidney inquires into the suspect suicide of a Cambridge solicitor, a scandalous jewellery theft at a New Year's Eve dinner party, the unexplained death of a well-known jazz promoter and a shocking art forgery, the disclosure of which puts a close friend in danger. Sidney discovers that being a detective, like being a clergyman, means that you are never off duty...

Great narration
If you’re a fan of vintage detective stories (Agatha Christie, Dorothy L Sayers, Ngaio Marsh) you’ll probably enjoy these stories. The Christian theme doesn’t overshadow the general plots, but sets the context for Sidney’s character beautifully.
And 10/10 to the amazing narrator for his singing! Especially of Gloria Dee’s slow jazz numbers!
