A Yorkshire Village. A Perfect Marriage. A Deadly Secret.

When Zara Hattersley is found murdered in her flat above the village post office, the evidence seems clear-cut. Her husband Aiden claims masked robbers held him at gunpoint while his wife was killed upstairs—but
Detective Sergeant George Beaumont isn't convinced.

The time of death doesn't match Aiden's story. No witnesses saw the supposed robbers on the busy morning street. And beneath the surface of their seemingly perfect marriage, cracks are beginning to show.

But in the close-knit Yorkshire village of Pool-in-Wharfedale, nothing is quite what it seems. As George delves deeper into the investigation, he uncovers a web of obsession, financial fraud, and carefully planted evidence that threatens to tear the community apart.

Someone has been watching. Someone has been planning. And someone will stop at nothing to claim what they believe is rightfully theirs.

In a place where everyone knows everyone else's business, the deadliest secrets are often hidden in plain sight.

The Postmaster's Wife is the first book in the Detective Sergeant George Beaumont thriller series, set 4 years before my other series.
