Amateur sleuth Eve Mallow is enjoying a very well-deserved holiday in a charming cottage with her new husband. But murder never takes a break...
Nestled among the trees of a gorgeous country estate, Hideaway House is the perfect place for a holiday - complete with roof terrace, cosy fireplace and four-poster bed. It's been a labour of love for charismatic Duncan Blake, who shot to fame thanks to his TV shows restoring old buildings, and he's hoping his hard work will pay off with a good review.
Despite her misgivings - Eve can't be bought! - she packs up Robin and dachshund Gus and heads to Kesham. But from the beginning it's the holiday from hell. First, she finds a threatening note warning her that Hideaway House has history...
And then Duncan is found dead at the bottom of a ditch.
But who wanted to demolish the building expert? Was it his keen apprentice, who was working for free? His wife, who gave up her dreams to follow his? Or the owner of nearby Kesham Hall, whose relationship with Duncan was on decidedly rocky foundations?
Brick by brick, Eve gathers her evidence: a missing murder weapon, a long-lost daughter, and the secret sabotage of Duncan's plans. But can she nail the killer before she digs herself into a deadly hole?
A completely gripping English cozy mystery, full of charm and puzzling clues, perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Agatha Christie and Emylia Hall.
