About this listen

Charles Paris’ acting career plumbs new depths when he takes the part of a possible murder victim in ‘Public Enemies’, a true-crime television series. Finding himself in a bizarre world somewhere between police procedure and showbiz, Charles is inexorably drawn into the investigation... especially after the dismembered limbs start turning up.

The viewers of ‘Public Enemies’ get caught up in the macabre jigsaw puzzle of death; it is ghastly, of course, but it does make good television. As the programme’s ratings soar, so the egos behind the scene become ever more inflated, and Charles ever more determined to solve the mystery.

You have to listen to this

Simon Brett is a genius. You don’t need me to say anything more other than i wish he would give poor Charles some luck!

Gentle crime / mystery

Simon Brett reads his own work very well and that helps to make this series an easy listen.

Why hasn't anyone televised these mysteries?

The Charles Paris amateur sleuth mysteries are excellent, just as entertaining as, for instance, Agatha Raisin, and far better than the leaden detectives in Midsomer Murders. I'm amazed they haven't already been televised - an opportunity for some new aspiring production company perhaps? Meanwhile Simon Brett does a wonderful job reading his own work.

A very enjoyable listen

I love the books by Simon Brett, and the fact that he narrates them himself. . The book is very well written, with believable characters. Once again, I had to listen in one sitting.
