When a body is discovered at their local country fair, amateur detectives Flora and Jack Carrington agree this death smells suspicious - and it's not just the killer cheese. It's the scent of murder...
Sussex, 1960: It's the perfect day for Abbeymead's autumn fair. The village green has been transformed into a riot of stalls and tents, and Flora and Jack are keen to sample all the local produce. But when local cheesemaker Gilbert Barrow crashes into the fair, he brings the festivities to a dead halt.
Flora rushes to the van and finds Gilbert slumped over the wheel, killed by his prize-winning round of cheese, which has broken free of its bonds. Flora is immediately alert - surely Gilbert would have been more careful with his treasured prize... and with his life?
Certain there's more to this than just a tragic accident, Flora and Jack begin investigating Gilbert's close circle - his jealous cousin, Bea, his corporate dairy rival, Reginald, and his estranged wife, Vivienne. When Gilbert's new girlfriend is attacked, the race to find out who had the biggest motive heats up faster than fondue. But can Flora and Jack sniff out the killer - or will their investigation crumble before the murderer strikes again...?
A completely gripping and page-turning, charming cozy mystery novel packed to the brim with brilliant twists. Fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin and J.R. Ellis will love Murder at the Country Fair.
