THE DETECTIVE
MONICA NOBLE was widowed young, leaving her to raise her feisty daughter on her own. That is, until she met and fell in love with Graham Noble, a country vicar (pastor), who enticed her to leave her high-flying job in advertising in the city and move to the Cotswold countryside. There she found bucolic life very pleasant indeed — until murder started to rear its ugly head. And she discovered, to everyone’s surprise, that she had a flair for solving the most unholy of crimes.

Faith Martin is the champion of mystery writers. She keeps the reader guessing until the end. Her characters are believable people trying to solve a murder. Monica Noble is a new favorite character outwitting the police by finding the guilty culprit first.

These stories were very interesting. Monica is an essential character with an amazing intellect that is able to process clues. It has funny scenes with her daughter and with her adorable husband that always backs her when she solves the crimes.

Would highly recommend this set. A sleuthing vicar's wife who reminds me of Miss Marple. Thoroughly enjoyable read set in the English countryside.

Murder Happens in the Lives of Vicars

This is without a doubt one of the best book series I have ever read. Faith Martin takes the reader into an unknown world of cigars. Monica and Graham Noble and Chief Detective Jason Fury are portrayed as intelligent, professional people who work together to see justice served. I especially loved the way the author described the church, the landscape, and the people without it becoming a boring experience. I highly recommend this book set!!!!! You are in for a good reading trip.

I really enjoyed reading three engaging mysteries. The main characters seem very real, not overblown and unrealistic as I find so many characters today. I guessed the murderer half way through the third book but still enjoyed the journey to the end. In the first two books it took longer to find the murderer as the clues appeared.

I recommend this series as the stories, characters and the reader are treated as intelligent entities.

Intriguing mysteries, great characters, well written

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2021

It is always a delight to discover a new author with great ideas and a cast of engaging characters. It is a bonus to have these presented in an enjoyable writing style. The setting is charming country towns and the stories deal with very human passions and fears that swirl beneath civilized exteriors. I really enjoyed this omnibus, as is evidence by the rate at which I galloped through them.

Very good set of books

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2021

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed these three books and I would recommend them to anyone who enjoys Cozy mysteries. The author has a talent for setting the scene and introducing the characters, gradually showing more and more of each person. The tips are throughout, so one needs to store them up. I find I seldom do guess the culprit but when the criminal is revealed, it does fit. These are enjoyable books to read.

Well plotted murder mysteries, each with a surprising twist. The characters are well developed and the protagonists are engaging and intelligent. I thoroughly enjoyed these three stories. I will be reading more of Faith Martin's books.

This set was on offer. A very engrossing and well bought bit of temptation.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 21, 2021

Verified Purchase

A pleasant series with a thoughtful heroine, loving husband and a chief inspector. Both men are handsome, both men are under Monica's spell .

Monica herself is prone to solving murders via observations and deductions.
Each title. Is an interesting read. My favourite was the third title which saw the daughter develop a little and have a key role for once.

Gentle cosy tales of murder, greed, jealousy, lies wrapped up with the strength of goodness. Definitely a case of the wrapping being the bit to keep!!

There is more to a Vicars Wife

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 12, 2021

I really enjoyed these books. The characters drew me in and I am sorry to have finished reading about the exciting sometimes scary episodes in their lives. From Monica, her husband Rev Graham Noble to Detective Chief Inspector Dury and Monica’s teenage rebellious daughter they all come alive. The cases (?) in the three books kept me guessing as to who the murderer was. There were clues but very subtle, I loved trying to figure it out. If there are more Monica Noble stories to tell , I will be in the queue to read them.

A very light but slightly addictive read.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 26, 2021

Verified Purchase

I have read two of these Monica Noble books now. They had me screaming at my Kindle because there were so many annoying grammatical mistakes e.g. "they were sat at the table" instead of "they were sitting at the table". But the plots were reasonably ingenious and the English country settings quite at odds with the skullduggery lurking just beneath the surface. If you're not fussy about the misuse or abuse of the English language and like non-sensational but twisty whodunnits, these books are for you. But if you prefer well-written books that can be classed as literature then avoid them like the plague.

This is a review of all 3 books which were excellent. The characters of Graham Noble, Monica Noble and Carol-Ann Clancy are lovely and brilliantly drawn. Jason the chief inspector and Sgt Flora (only in books 2 and 3) are also extremely well done and I loved Flora's secret passion for Jason. The plotting is excellent and all 3 are page turners. My one criticism is that there are just too many characters in each book to easily keep track of them. Carol-Ann, Monica's daughter from her first marriage, is a pure delight and her antics in the second book are comedic. She needs a book all to herself.

Unrelentingly dull

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 18, 2022

Verified Purchase

Finding myself in need of a new author, I decided to try “The Complete Monica Noble box set: Books 1-3". However, despite Faith Martin’s decent vocabulary her prose in unrelentingly dull and, had it not been for references to mobile phones, I could easily have thought it had been written as an homage to the pedestrian crime novels of the 1950’s.

It is after the murder has been committed and the arrival of the local police that it begins to feel very dated. The detective has to spell out all his actions as though his sergeant has received no training and/or the readership are equally clueless having never watched a single television cop show. Our DCI notes that it is a shame the guests have inevitably been discussing the preceding events, yet he questions them as a group thereby giving the culprit the opportunity to ensure his or her story does not contradict what has been said by the others. By this point I decided I could not bear to continue this inane tale and abandoned it about half way through book one. Sorry not for me.
