About this listen

Can the past really come back to haunt you?

Cambridge. Christmas 1922. Posie Parker has cleared a space in her hectic schedule to try to unravel a tragedy in her own family. But Posie’s past is hiding around every turn in the old university town. She finds herself taking on a new case which is positively teeming with ghosts, shadows, and secrets, where nothing is quite what it seems.

In a quest to find out what happened to Dr. William Winter, a brilliant Cambridge doctor who disappeared five years previously, Posie is forced to confront her own painful memories of the Great War. But just how safe is it really to go digging up the past? And will Posie get to spend Christmas this year with anything other than Mr. Minks, the office cat, and a lonely heart for company?

This is a classic golden age of crime mystery which will appeal to fans of Agatha Christie and Downton Abbey. The Vanishing of Dr Winter is the fourth book in the delightfully classic Posie Parker Mystery Series, although the novel can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story in its own right.

If you love an action-packed historical cozy crime with a feisty protagonist, buy The Vanishing of Dr. Winter now.

Really enjoyable no nasties just genteel ‘putting things right’

Really enjoyed this. So many authors rely on objectionable language and blasphemy, aggression and violence to shock their audiences into submission. There’s enough of that in the world and I need something nice’ to entertain me. This book engages the brain treats us to some historical context and is very well narrated. A real winner in my opinion.

Good story, but . . .

I loved the storyline and the narrator was very good. However I did find, as with the other books in the series, that the author's referrals to things that were not actually happening or known about in the early 1920s quite annoying e.g postcodes, buying chocolates by the kilo, etc.

please check for historical accuracy.

The use of kilo, and 1st class post, plus some more modern language,detract from an enjoyable story. Lazy editing.
