SeriesThea Osborne #1
Nestled in the hills of the Cotswolds, the village of Duntisbourne Abbots is a well-kept secret. When recently widowed Thea Osborne arrives to house-sit for a local couple, her only fear is that three weeks there might prove a little dull. When Joel Jennison is found slaughtered in the same field where his brother's corpse had laid ten weeks previously, a whole community falls under suspicion. Was it a family feud? An act of revenge? As a forty-something woman with no previous experience of detective work. Thea knows she shouldn't be getting involved. But as her new friend Harry points out, a fresh eye can sometimes see what others miss. In calling on her neighbors to get some answers. Thea uncovers more tragedy and intrigue than she thought possible behind the chocolate-box facade of a peaceful Gloucestershire village.
