It is 1947 and the Westleham Village Show. With the war finally over, everyone is looking forward to a pleasant day, but Martha Miller doesn't share the excitement. Since her husband Stan left for work one day and never returned, she has been treated as somewhat of an outsider and the village gossip is that Martha must be to blame. She hopes she can win her fellow villagers over with her delicious homemade plum gin, but as glasses are quaffed, disaster strikes. Chairwoman of the village show Alice Warren slumps to the ground, poisoned! As the fingers of suspicion again point Martha's way, she's determined to prove her innocence and find the real culprit. She's ably helped by the new vicar Luke Walker. But who would kill Alice and why? And will Luke and Martha discover who is behind the poisoning? An utterly charming 1940s mystery, the first in a new cosy crime series we have selected for our readers. 210pp, paperback.
