Foreign correspondent Amelia Ansfield barely escaped death during a mission in Syria. To recover, she moves to the charming village of Upper Crayton in the Cotswolds. But the peace does not last long. When the town’s beloved veterinarian is found murdered, the village is in turmoil.
The local police soon come to suspect the vet’s assistant. Yet, Amelia’s journalistic instincts tell her that something is off. Together with her chaotic aunt Rose and her friend Kate, she does some sleuthing of her own. Her ability to coax more out of people than they want to reveal plays a crucial role in solving the crime.
As the true story of the murdered vet unfolds, it suddenly becomes clear that Upper Crayton is not so peaceful after all.
