A great many are crime novels, including the Charles Paris, Mrs Pargeter and Feathering series.Simon was also Chairman of the Crime Writers Association from 1986 to 1987 and of the Society of Authors from 1995 to1997. He lives near Arundel in West Sussex and is married with three grown-up children, one grandson, one granddaughter, and four cats.
From AudioFile:
Simon Brett's droll delivery makes it clear that the dead body in the library is only a bother--except to two aristocratic siblings: Twinks, who loves solving mysteries, and Blotto, who prefers cricket and hunting but who will be nudged into heroism by his sense of family honor. Brett's blend of Agatha Christie and P.G. Wodehouse is taken to extremes with oddball descriptions and asides, which he himself reads with an appropriate blend of gusto and upper-crust hauteur. There's a plot in here somewhere, and listeners may even find themselves on the edges of their seats. But Brett's detective riffs and narration are aimed squarely at fans of comedy in the Wodehouse vein. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
