Please change narrator!! His exaggerated enthusiasm is irritating and belittling to the text ; I would have given 3 stars but for this.

Shadow of the Past
Not as well read as 'Keeper of Secrets' but an enjoyable, well written Georgian mystery - not too heavy or to light; good for listening to while doing the housework.

Secrets
This is part 2 of this series. The characters are developed and another murder is the beginning of this detective story set in the early years of the 19th century in a small rural Warwickshire village. Unlike Jane Austin's writing much more is made of the sufferings of the poor of the parish although the groaning tables of the dinners of the gentry are not forgotten either.
I enjoyed the characters, the social history and the narrator, although find him sometimes annoyingly chirpy
I am going to download the next in this comfortable series set in a past where medicine, policing and religious attitudes are so different from today
