Meet Eve Mallow, an American far from home, a professional busybody and an amateur detective. Seasoned obituary writer Eve has a new assignment - to tell the life story of famed musician Bernard Fitzpatrick. A chance to spend a few days in the sweet little village of Saxford St Peter, walking the country lanes with her beloved dachshund Gus and meeting new people sounds like a dream. But it turns out that Bernard's life was much less interesting than his death. News breaks that the charismatic cellist was the victim of a grisly murder and as Eve starts to interview his friends and colleagues, she discovers that Bernard has ruffled more than a few feathers. In fact, from the keepers of the Cross Keys Inn to his own staff at High House, there's barely a person in town who doesn't have some reason to hate him. Which one of the friendly villagers is a cold-blooded killer? Then a second body is found... 264pp, paperback.
