An Afternoon with Reverend Richard Coles - A Carol and a Killing

Bestselling author, broadcaster and national treasure the Reverend Richard Coles talks about his life and his latest book Join us in Bridgnorth for an afternoon with bestselling author, broadcaster and national treasure the Reverend Richard Coles as he talks about his life and his new book A Carol and a Killing. Deck the halls with murder and skulduggery; Champton's Christmas carol concert is derailed by a highly suspicious death in the sixth compelling Canon Clement mystery from the beloved Reverend Richard Coles. Christmas in Champton, and Daniel and Neil Vanloo are reluctantly conscripted into the Cathedral's choir. The town is buzzing with preparations, festive merriment prevails, and the concert goes without a hitch. That is, until a warbling soloist steps forward: and falls to his death before he can finish the note. And Daniel suspects it wasn't a fall, but a push... Can Daniel, Neil - and Daniel's delighted mother, Audrey - solve the mystery and catch the Christmas killer? Murder Before Evensong, the first Canon Clement novel, was adapted for television with some of the filming taking place on location in and around Bridgnorth. Starring Matthew Lewis as Daniel Clement and Amanda Redman as his widowed mother, this six part mystery aired on Channel Five in October 2025. Richard Coles is without doubt one of the UK’s most distinctive voices.
