Description
When Gloria French arrives in the Cotswold village of Piddlebury, she’s welcomed as a tireless do-gooder—until her carefully curated image begins to crack. As Agatha, a private investigator struggling to keep her practice afloat, is drawn into the village’s growing unease, a tangled romantic entanglement involving Gloria’s ex-husband and her much younger staff member turns suspicious fast. What starts as community gossip and uneasy charm escalates into a case that demands sharp observation, nerve, and an eye for what people hide behind good manners. Blending doomed romance with a brisk, mystery-driven investigation, this story explores trust, class, and the dangerous stories we tell ourselves—delivered in M.C. Beaton’s signature style of witty tension and page-turning intrigue.
