About the Author:

Dubbed by the Sunday Times as, 'Simply the best detective writer since Agatha Christie' and by the Yorkshire Post as 'the most underrated British crime writer', Caroline Graham is the author of seven Inspector Barnaby novels.

From AudioFile:

Although octogenarian Miss Simpson's death seems a natural one, her closest friend believes otherwise. DCI Barnaby investigates. Hugh Ross does a marvelous job with the narration! The accents and tone of voice are perfect for each character. Without missing a beat, he slips easily from Miss Simpson's cultured speech to the affectations of the local undertaker and his domineering mother. Through Graham's text, Ross easily puts us in the middle of a small village. An engaging reader, and one to search out. D.M.W.An AUDIOFILE Earphones Award winner. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
