It isn’t long before a mystery unfolds. There are strange events occurring in the nearby wood and local villagers are receiving anonymous threatening letters. Then the snow begins to fall – and a body is discovered.
Mrs Bradley is on the case, but she’ll have to hatch an ingenious plan to reveal the truth and find the culprit…
The house here is a great estate in the Cotswolds
It lay in typical Cotswold Country hilly yet gloriously open It was partly wooded, had a dashing strem and aoffrere some shooting and the chance of going out with the local hunt.
Great slopes brooded dreamily upon their lost summer treasure fof wheat, clover and barley; little by-roads sloped quietly up or down to Coberley Elkstone, Brimpsfield and Compton Abdale.
