It's 1941 and the war rumbles on. Nowhere is immune to the effects of war, not even Ambridge. But in England's favourite village, something else is occupying the residents...

When a prominent villager dies, the main beneficiary's name is a mystery, and no one knows who is set to inherit the estate, cottage and all. The name is hidden within a locked box and the villagers much uncover the password to find out the name of the beneficiary. So when five people are each sent a packet of seeds, the mystery deepens - could the seeds be part of a clue? And can they all work together to unlock the mystery and to discover who is set to inherit?

Beautifully produced, with stunning endpapers, this is the perfect read for all Archers fans.

Whether you love the Archers or not, this is a great listen. It's beautifully read as well. The characters are perfect, so is the story. It's an amble through lives during the war. The fears, affairs, and gentle reality of village life with such violence in the background. It's 12 hours of such pleasure. It is the Archers.

Marvellous and Perfect
