Death In A Feathered Brim
A Cozy Cotswold Village Mystery with Secrets, Gossip, and a Vintage Twist



In the charming Cotswold village of Brambleford-on-Windrush, nothing ever truly goes unnoticed…

Except, perhaps, a murderer.

Matilda Honeycutt knows her vintage hat collection better than anyone. Every ribbon, every feather, every carefully restored piece has its place. So when a rare Edwardian hat disappears, she notices immediately.

When it turns up again, the situation turns deadly.

Because the hat is no longer in her shop.

It is sitting on the head of a dead local socialite.

Now, with suspicion falling on her eccentric clientele, Matilda must untangle a web of secrets woven beneath polite smiles and village traditions. Armed with sharp instincts, a steady supply of elderflower tea, and an ear for gossip, she begins to stitch together the truth.

But in a village where everyone seems to know everything…

Someone has been hiding something in plain sight.

And they are counting on Matilda to notice.
