A Swarm of Butterflies

A page turning British cozy murder mystery to keep you guessing

By: Sarah Yarwood-Lovett

Narrated by: Kristin Atherton

When Finchmere's first summer fete turns fatal, Nell has more than just a killer to net...

Since their YouTube channel, Following Finchmere, has taken flight, showcasing Dr Nell Ward's sustainability transformation at her family's Finchmere estate, it's her partner and colleague, Rav, who's become the star.

Amongst Rav's fan mail and gifts, Nell makes the chilling discovery that one person's obsession with him has metamorphosed into a deadly threat.

Just as Finchmere flings open its gates to welcome swarms of visitors to their idyllic summer fete - celebrating rewilding, artisan produce and local crafts - Nell realises the disguised peril has already wormed its way into the heart of Finchmere itself, and the path of destruction soon leads to murder.

DI James Clark's and Nell's powers of observation are put to the test to detect the camouflaged predator. With everyone as a suspect, who can Nell really trust when those she loves are in danger?

The Nature of Murder

This is a wonderful continuation of the Nell Ward Series. The author brilliantly weaves nature into her murder mysteries making connections between species and man. I couldn’t stop listening to this story because there were many cliffhangers as well as so many characters who could’ve done it. Can’t wait for the next story

The narration and the story itself!

Fantastic experience listening to her book. Also, very informative and educational. ❗️ Will keep on reading her books 💌

Intrigue, twists and turns!

Listening on the edge of my seat until the very end!
Never a dull moment! Going for the next book 📕

Another excellent story

Great evolution of the characters. This was another well-crafted mystery beautifully narrated. Please keep these coming.

Hooked on this series!

Another fantastic book with complex characters and motivations! I'm so hooked on these books, and I'll probably listen to them again soon. Nell is such a brilliant character. Clever and strong, but still sensitive. I really enjoy learning along the way too! I remember so much more from learning about nature through stories like this versus walking through a museum.
