At this brewery, the last orders are to die for...
When handsome, former-rugby-playing, pub landlord Mil asks Juno Mulligan for a favour, she immediately says yes.
Although she's initially disappointed that the favour doesn't involve any sort of romantic shenanigans, Juno is reminded that she does love investigating mysteries. And perhaps it is just her destiny to choose crime-fighting over afternoon-delighting?
It's an interesting case. Mil needs Juno and their fellow Village Detective, Phoebe Fredericks, to investigate a targeted campaign against the local Wyche Craft Brewery, now run by his friend, Ashleigh Wyche, a former-Lioness. A series of recent near-misses and attempts at sabotaging her property are surely no coincidence?
Then a body is discovered in the tap room, which quickly proves they were right to suspect there's more than just a vendetta brewing... And if they're to prevent another murder, they need to find out whether they've got the bottle to hunt down another killer...
Readers love The Village Detective series:Engrossing... Reminds me of a cross between the Agatha Raisin TV series and Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books, both of which I love. This is the perfect, light-hearted summer read for anyone looking for some fun escapism.' Reader Review
'A crossover between a witty romcom and a cosy crime.' Reader Review
'I woke up early to read it and I struggled to put it down. The best book I've read this year. The characters were great, I got really invested in them and the storyline was gripping. Please write more!' Reader Review
