What you need to know before your trail

The Cotswolds are experiencing the wettest winter on record. The devastation can be seen everywhere for the rivers have burst their banks and the farmers’ fields lie under several feet of water.

And Christmas is just around the corner. But so too is murder it would seem..

In the village of Weston Saint Ambrose, a young girl’s body is seen floating downstream and when it becomes stuck under the jetty at a reclusive writer’s home, the author is alarmed to discover that he recognises the victim of a brutal murder…

Inspector Jess Campbell and Superintendent Ian Carter have their next case…

Travel Guide

The Cotswolds

The Cotswolds are usually a nice quiet place and an ideal place to retreat to if you’re a writer, or so you would think. It’s in the fictional village of Weston St Ambrose that trouble comes quite literally floating into a writer’s path.

All he wanted to do was to sit by a babbling brook and write his next best seller as writing was hard to do elsewhere and maybe, just maybe this calm and Cotswold woodlands and meadows would create the kind of inspiration  every writer dreams of.

He’s even joined a writer’s group but there’s more arguing and discontent here than anywhere else he’s ever known. They might struggle with writing words down but they have no trouble discussing events in their own quirky way.

The village itself is also a bit of a closed group – for everyone seems to have secrets. And when the victim is found to be the local villain’s daughter…well that floods the village with more scandal and potential danger than al the waters combined.
