Thea Osbourne has just gotten a job as a house sitter in the Cotswolds.
During the middle of the night on her first night there she hears a
scream. she doesn't do anything about it. But late the next morning,
while exploring the land where she is staying, she finds a body in the
pond. Later in the afternoon, she is informed that a few months earlier
the brother of the victim had been shot and killed in the same field.
Thea's
brother-in-law, James, is a plains clothes police officer and is quite
concerned that she is staying to house-sit. She decides that it is
important to get to know her neighbours.
Following a minor car
accident, Thea overhears a couple of her neighbours discussing something
that sounds somewhat criminal. She doesn't know what to make of it.
The funeral of the victim brings more questions and concerns to mind for
Thea.
As the mystery unwinds author Rebecca Tope gives the reader an unusual conclusion.
