The body is found abandoned in the middle of a Dorset country road - tied to a chair, stag antlers on his head.

It's Jim Tiernan, landlord of Fleetcombe's The White Hart pub - and now a murder victim.

Newly arrived DS Nicola Bridge has her work cut out. Fleetcombe is a picture-postcard village. Murder is the last thing on anyone's mind.

Except that here Nicola finds whispers, rumours, resentments and lie after lie.

Because the smaller the village, the darker its hidden secrets . . .

A debut crime novel

I liked the television works of Chibnall - especially Broadchurch - so I gladly gave this novel a try. It definitely was entertaining though it remains, noticeably, a debut. There's definitely potential upwards for upcoming books. Still a quick enough read with enough interesting plot points to be worth a look into.

Hat mir gut gefallen. Ein klassisches 'whodunnit' in einem englischen Dorf, tolle Charaktere, nette Umgebung. Schöne Bildsprache. Hoffentlich ist es der Auftakt einer Reihe.
