I have just read Richard Coles debut novel Murder at Evensong, and enjoyed its description of parish life.

Salley Vickers The Gardener, gentle, beautifully written, undemanding.
Ellie Griffiths, books about an archaeologist in Norfolk who is frequently involved in unravelling local deaths, ancient and modern.

Hi Lucca
Did you read The Carer?
Indeed any Deborah Moggarch.
I particularly like her Buffy (he’s a lugubrious ageing actor) books, start with The Ex-Wives.

Enjoy your break!

Going away next week need holiday reads.
Not too fat a book .
Not fantasy
Not gory
Not too chick lit but not intellectually demanding
No Richard Osman !!
