Are the parishioners of Farsley ready to welcome The Reverend ? Join us at the Old Woollen as we talk to writer, broadcaster and Anglican priest, The Reverend Richard Coles about the fourth novel in the No.1 bestselling Canon Clement series ‘A Death on Location.’
In the spring of 1990, we return to Champton, where the characters we’ve come to love are all aflutter as a glamorous movie set takes over the village. As the actors don their bonnets, gowns and crowns, a murder interrupts filming on set – and it’s an ingenious murder . . . Canon Daniel solves the mystery with help from his sidekick Detective Sergeant Neil Vanloo – even when things are so sticky between them?
The Canon Clement Mystery books have all been Sunday Times No.1 bestsellers; collectively, they have sold hundreds of thousands of copies across physical, audio and ebook, and gained critical acclaim from the likes of the Guardian, to the Telegraph, to Dawn French and Ian Rankin.
Many of the characters which made Murder Before Evensong and A Death in the Parish instant hits are back: Daniel himself, his mother Audrey, the inhabitants of Champton and – of course – Cosmo and Hilda, Daniel’s beloved dachshunds.
The Reverend Richard Coles is well-loved and hugely popular; he has over half a million Twitter followers and presents shows on BBC Radio 4 as well as appearing on TV shows such as Have I Got News For You and Would I Lie To You? He has won Christmas MasterChef, Celebrity Mastermind twice, and captained Leeds to victory in Christmas University Challenge in 2019. A contestant on Strictly Come Dancing (2017) and a third place finalist on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! (2024) where he exhibited huge bravery.
He writes regularly for the Sunday Times, and is the author of half a dozen books, including a bestselling autobiography, Fathomless Riches, and the bereavement bestseller The Madness of Grief, written after the death of his partner, David Coles. The first three books in the Canon Clement series have all been No.1 Sunday Times bestsellers.
