A PACEY MYSTERY WITH REVELATIONS YOU’LL NEVER SEE COMING

SOMETHING IS AFOOT IN A SLEEPY SOMERSET HAMLET.

Please note this was originally published as The House on Gallows Green.

Rosemary and Dick Brown move into a beautiful, secluded house on Gallows Green in the idyllic Somerset village of Lullington Barrow. It seems like a dream come true. But is it too good to be true?

The tight-knit community close ranks when asked about the previous residents.

NO ONE IS WHO THEY APPEAR TO BE.

The charming village takes on an even more sinister hue when Rosemary’s sister, Corrie, and her husband, DI Jack Dawes, come to visit and a local man is found dead at the bottom of a slurry pit, his body wrapped in a feed sack.

A MURDERER IS ON THE LOOSE.

A few bad apples reveal the village’s rotten core, as the body count rises. The forces at play extend far beyond this backwater, but how? Jack must race to fit the pieces together as everything he holds dear comes under threat.

WHO WILL BE THE NEXT VICTIM OF THE GALLOWS GREEN KILLER?

MEET THE DETECTIVES
Detective Inspector Jack Dawes, tall and handsome, looks like the fuzz even when he’s off-duty. He rose up through the ranks at Scotland Yard and now is a well-respected detective in the murder squad. A career copper, he was married to the job until he met Coriander during a money laundering investigation, the case which earned him his promotion to DI. He has logical analytical skills. She has intuitive people skills. So he bounces ideas off her. They make a formidable and funny couple whose skills combine to solve crimes.
