Wraps have a bit of edge and cover wear; tight binding; sticker on rear wrap. ‘The Cotswold village of Upper Benbury is buzzing with rumour and gossip. The body of a young gipsy girl has been found in a discarded freezer, recently stolen from outside the house of one of its most prominent residents. A local newshound persuades Melissa Craig, the crime writer with a reputation for solving real crimes, to accompany him to the gipsy encampment. When she learns that members of the victim’s family are planning to administer their own brand of justice, Melissa’s investigation lands her in grave danger and exposes dark secrets in unexpected places.’ (from rear wrap)
