#1 Murder at the Bonfire

It has been a year since Tess had to trade the hustle and bustle of London life for pulling pints and moonlighting as a Cher impersonator in a backwater country pub.

The sleepy Yorkshire village of Cherrywood would always be home, but a return to rural life wasn’t quite the path she’d paved for herself. Still, being back with her oldest friends, Raven and Oliver , was a definite upside and she was beginning to settle into the slower pace.

That is until Clemmie Ackroyd , a stalwart member of the community, is brutally murdered. Ruled a robbery gone wrong, it’s an open-and-shut case for the police, but something isn’t quite adding up for Tess. (11 hrs and 4 mins)

#2 Murder at the Bonfire

When it’s announced that the hotly anticipated ‘Penny for the Guy’ trail will have a celebrity judge – former DJ ‘Screaming’ Ade Adams – competition steps up amongst the villagers.

But as everyone gathers for the big event, Ade is found dead atop the bonfire with three mysterious tarot cards in his pocket, and barmaid and part-time sleuth Tess Feather suspects foul play. Why would anyone in Cherrywood want the retired disc jockey dead? And could there be a connection to a recently returned villager: Tess’s estranged brother Mikey? (10 hrs and 50 mins)
