Lambing season always brings the unexpected, but no one expected murder. Jude Gray never thought she would find herself widowed and running a working farm full-time, but here she is, living in the small Malvern village her husband Adam spent most of his life in. After a particularly gruelling lambing season, she is looking forward to some time off, but there's no rest for the wicked, especially when she finds the body of one of Adam's oldest friends on her farm. Unimpressed with the local constabulary's efforts, Jude starts an investigation of her own. But as the body count rises, danger creeps ever closer to Malvern Farm.

A killer is on the prowl. And all that stands in their way is one woman – and her dog.

A complex and intriguing murder mystery set in beautiful British countryside, where the farm animals are as demanding as the local residents. Kept me guessing all the way to the end. T. A. Williams, author of Murder in Siena, An original setting and clever plot. Had me hooked from page one. E.V. Hunter, author of A Contest to Kill For, A tantalising corkscrew of a plot … featuring a plucky quartet of very different women working together to uncover the truth about a series of dreadful crimes. Debbie Young, author of Artful Antics at St Brides, I loved this rollercoaster of a book! It was stylish, pacy, and gripping, with engaging characters. I rooted for Jude, the sleuth, from the first page. It's a hugely suspenseful story, compelling, well-crafted, and cleverly calculated. Judy Leigh, author of Foul Play at Seal Bay, A cryptically clever cosy mystery that will transport you to the beautiful Malvern Hills. I couldn't put it down! Jessica Bull, author of Miss Austen Investigates, A fabulous cosy murder mystery with plenty of likeable (and unlikeable) characters. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to more from this author.
