In the third book of the Shires Mysteries, developers are threatening to destroy the local meadows, but the villagers, including Sam Dee and Maggie Kaye, are fighting back. When someone silences one of their number, Maggie and Sam delve into the past to unearth the truth and discover there are age-old secrets and personal vendettas that could have deadly repercussions.

All is not well in the picturesque village of Bishops Well. For centuries, the local meadows have been a source of pride, but now they are in danger of being destroyed by developers. The landowner is a wealthy and reclusive author who is content to see them demolished, but the villagers, including Sam Dee and Maggie Kaye, are determined to fight back.

Until, that is, someone decides to silence one of their own permanently. As Maggie and Sam soon discover, there is more at stake than just money in the developers' plans. There are age-old secrets and personal vendettas that could have deadly repercussions in Bishops Well today.

With Sam's legal expertise and Maggie's unique abilities, they delve into the past, determined to unearth the truth. As they get closer to the truth, sparks begin to fly, and could there be something more between this sleuthing duo?

"Shires Mysteries" is a gripping new cosy crime series that will appeal to fans of Betty Rowlands, Faith Martin, and Joy Ellis. Readers are raving about Anna Legat's writing, with one describing it as "brilliant" and another saying, "I didn't want to put it down!" The book is filled with twists and turns, and a brilliantly complex spaghetti of unrelated sub-plots that will challenge any armchair sleuth.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, reading it cover to cover in a weekend. I shall look out for more from Ms. Legat in the future.
