Summary

 Bloomsbury presents Sidney Chambers and The Persistence of Love by James Runcie, read by Joe Jameson.

There is no reason at all why this series should not run and run and why Sidney Chambers should not occupy the same place in the pantheon as Miss Marple or Poirot' – Catholic Herald

'Perfect reading for a sunny English garden' – Kate Saunders, The Times

'There is no denying the winning charm of these artfully fashioned mysteries' – Barry Forshaw, Independent
_______________

The sixth book in James Runcie's much-loved series, adapted for ITV’s Grantchester which stars James Norton as Sidney Chambers. Perfect for fans of M. C. Beaton.

Life is never straightforward when you’re a full-time priest and part-time detective. So when a walk in a bluebell wood takes an unexpected turn, Archdeacon Sidney Chambers finds himself plunged into another murder investigation: who would want to kill a harmless old hippy – and why was the man foraging for poisonous plants?

Sidney’s findings soon lead him into sunny Granchester’s dark underworld, where love is free and motives are shady. But his investigation, together with his continual inquiry into the divine mysteries of life, love and family, is blown apart by a devastating loss that will change his world forever.©2017 James Runcie (P)2023 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Amateur Sleuths Cosy Detective Historical Mystery Fiction

I have listened to all the Granchester books, brilliantly read, the last story was both moving and emphatic, it brought to close another chapter to this super set of audiobooks. Highly recommended to anyone who loves period dramas.

The last story

I have listened to all the Grantchester books an have thoroughly enjoyed Sidney’s journey through life during the war years until the seventies. I wasn’t happy that Hildegard was given her demise as she brought a different aspect to his life.
I would like to say that the television series is not like the books. In fact I stopped watching into the second series because it went into the ridiculous. May there be many more books in this series for me and others to enjoy.

Well written an so enjoyable
