About this listen

The new vicar had never wanted a picture-postcard parish – or a huge and haunted vicarage. Nor had she wanted to walk into a dispute over a controversial play about a 17th-century clergyman accused of witchcraft ... a story that certain long-established families would rather remained obscure. But this is Ledwardine, steeped in cider and secrets ... a paradise of cobbled streets and timber-framed houses. And also – as Merrily Watkins and her teenage daughter, Jane, discover – a village where horrific murder is a tradition that spans centuries.©1998 Phil Rickman (P)2006 Isis Audio Detective Occult Supernatural Women Sleuths Women's Fiction Scary Paranormal Fiction Mystery Wine

Tedious

A tedious drawl of nothing in particular that ended for me at the first mention of the injured cat.
I don’t do cat nasty.
I don’t recommend this book for anything other than a soporific at bedtime
