Simmy Brown had hoped that her autumn would be less frantic than usual to give her a chance to enjoy her pregnancy, her upcoming nuptials, and some time looking for a new house in the Patterdale area of the Lake District. But it is not to be .
Simmy's ideas of a quiet run-up to Christmas are cruelly dashed when one of the lodgers at her parents' B&B dies in her arms after seemingly being poisoned. It is clear the victim had some connection to a controversial new building project near Patterdale, and Simmy soon becomes embroiled in a complex investigation, headed up by her friend DI Moxon, as the nights grow darker and a killer roams free.
Rebecca Tope is the author of three bestselling crime series, set in the stunning Cotswolds, Lake District and West Country. She lives on a smallholding in rural Herefordshire, where she enjoys the silence and plants a lot of trees, but also manages to travel the world and enjoy civilisation from time to time. Most of her varied experiences and activities find their way into her books, sooner or later.
