Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Wrenscombe is the most picture-perfect village in all of Ashendale â ' cobbled streets, a chestnut-lined green, a pub where everybody knows everybody, and a six-hundred-year-old church tower standing watch over it all like a quiet, good-natured giant. At least, that's how it was, until antiques dealer Desmond Coyle turns up dead at the foot of the tower stairs. Meg Hartwell, a former investigative journalist from London and now the sole reporter at the Wrenscombe Gazette, was only supposed to write an obituary. A few kind words, a photograph, done. But one hesitation too many, one explanation just a little too smooth â ' and before she knows it, she's neck-deep in an investigation nobody else thinks is necessary. Because in Wrenscombe, everyone has a secret. The vicar who makes secretive phone calls after dark. The lord of the manor quietly planning to sell off his family's inheritance without telling a soul. The antiques dealer across the square who hasn't so much as looked at Desmond in years. And buried somewhere deep in the church archives, a forty-year-old story no one was ever meant to remember â ' the story of a young bookkeeper who died in that very same tower back in 1980. The deeper Meg digs, the clearer it becomes: some people in this village are hiding things that have nothing to do with the murder.

Between cups of tea, harvest festival preparations, and the increasingly pointed questions of an old friend on the police force, Meg has to work out who she can still trust â ' before the tower keeps its next secret for good. A warm, cleverly plotted debut in cozy crime, for anyone who loves villages where the tea always comes with a little gossip on the side â ' and where murderers sometimes wear the friendliest faces of all. …
