English Cosy Mysteries

Elizabeth Sutton has moved back to her sleepy hometown in the English countryside and worries that her exciting days are behind her. She couldn’t be more wrong. Her work as a reporter for the town’s newspaper rarely involves covering a big story, so when she is sent to take notes at a local meeting about proposed building work, she thinks it will be just like any other. A wild group of protesters outside the town hall are shouting so loudly that Liz can barely hear what anyone is saying. In the days that follow, everything Liz thinks she knows about her town proves false.

Elizabeth is happy to be back in Black Bridge, a quaint English town where the mornings are cold, and the tea is hot. It seems she’s not the only one that finds it the idyllic place to be as the surrounding fields are suddenly overrun with travelers—something that several locals are unhappy about. Now that Elizabeth is working full time for The Herald, the town’s newspaper, it’s her job to cover the story, and she soon realizes that there is more going on than meets the eye.
