This was a cozy not quite in line with my usual reading.
In fact at times I wondered if I was listening to one of those "Christian" mysteries I've been seeing a lot of recently.
I'm generally not a "quitter", and I think that was what kept me going.
It was a murder mystery. There's a body right at the beginnning, as you can see from the blurb, and then another 3 people attacked, two of whom eventually die.

There seemed to be an underlying message: ordinary people can solve mysteries, and at times the coziness was almost overwhelming.There's a lot of human interest in the story too - the relationship between Suzy and Robert trembles on a knife edge for a while, a young chorister finds his true vocation, a teenage student causes heart ache for her parents. It is not badly written, it is just that my general fare is a bit grittier.

On the other hand, if churchgoing is part of your weekly ritual, you'll probably like THE CHORISTER a bit more than I did.

If you do decide to read it, then I think you should try to get the first in the series, THE FLOWER ARRANGER AT ALL SAINTS, as I gather from references in THE CHORISTER, that is where Suzy and Robert meet up, and solve their first mystery. It is probbaly better to read them in order. ( )
