DISCOVER YOUR NEXT FAVOURITE MURDER MYSTERY SERIES BY ONE OF BRITAIN'S MOST EMINENT CRIME WRITERS.
Helen Campbell's decision to turn off a foggy road and spend the night at the Seven Stars guesthouse will have far-reaching consequences.
As Helen turns into the car park, she witnesses a heated argument, and a young woman runs off into the night. But the hosts are welcoming and she thinks nothing more of it.
A few hours later, Detective Webb comes across a fatal hit-and-run nearby. An accident... or murder?
Webb is convinced there is a link with this death and a spate of robberies targeting local country houses. But with little evidence, he can't prove it.
Meanwhile, Helen returns to the Seven Stars to attend a local antiques course.
Is it her imagination or are her hosts a lot less friendly?
As Detective Webb strives to crack two outwardly unconnected cases, Helen unwittingly holds the key that might just solve them both.
But at what cost to her own life?
Perfect for fans of Peter James, Joy Ellis, Ann Cleeves, Roger Silverwood, Roy Lewis, Agatha Christie, or Faith Martin.

THE DETECTIVE
Detective Chief Inspector David Webb is in his mid-forties with plentiful brown hair, a hard mouth, and bleak grey eyes. He possesses a tenacious and observant nature, with a knack for delving into intricate details. Webb's determination shines through as he navigates his investigations, evaluating suspects and analysing clues with a touch of scepticism. He combines his pragmatic and focused approach to work with an artistic appreciation of beauty.
THE SETTING
The fictional county of Broadshire, in the southwest corner of England, exudes charm and picturesque allure. It's populated by a smattering of idyllic, historic villages -- their proximity to the Cotswolds apparent in the honey-coloured stone cottages and the increasingly hilly surrounding countryside.
