Summary
Ever so wholesome. Ever so deadly....
When a local man is found murdered in an English Trust stately home, the community is shaken to its core. None more so than newcomer Astrid Swift, who finds the body. When she moved from London to the sleepy Dorset village and got a job at the house as an art restorer, she thought she was heading for a quieter life. Far from it. Because it turns out that rather than being the genteel organisation it seems on the surface, the Trust is a hotbed of politics and intrigue. As Astrid's new friend Kath from the village says: 'It's like the mafia, but with scones.'
As the suspicious deaths mount up and the threat draws closer, Astrid must use every gadget in her restorer's toolkit to solve the mystery, save her reputation—and maybe even her life. Thrilling, funny and addictive, The Trust is perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Robert Thorogood and Clare Chase.

Charming.
Astrid gets dumped, moves to Dorset and learns lots of life lessons. She is an unlikeable snob at the start, but like any good cosy crime book the secondary characters do a lot of the work in creating the charm and warmth in the story, and help Astrid to flourish, see the emptiness of her former life - and of course solve the mystery!!

Wonderful characters within the story
This is a very light holiday story wonderfully read by Ruth Redman. She manages to get wonderful characters full of fun and emotion and very alive . Very entertaining .

Good choice for fans of cosy crime
This has a likeable lead character and the story jogs along nicely. It's ideal cosy crime. Well read by Ruth Redman. I enjoyed it enough to download and listen to the second book. There was a third book, but when I came back to purchase it, it had mysteriously disappeared. A case for our heroine to investigate, perhaps?
