Slaughter in the Cotswolds (Cotswolds Mystery 6) [Hardcover]

Rebecca Tope (Author)

Book Description

Series: Cotswolds Mystery 6 | Publication Date: August 6, 2009

Thea throws herself into house-sitting for Babs and Cedric Angell in Lower Slaughter following her beloved father's death - anything to keep her busy and away from some of her rather difficult relatives. And while feeling lonely, keeping the house in order and looking after the Angell's menagerie of animals does the trick for a short period of time. But when Thea's prickly elder sister turns up on her doorstep after witnessing a horrific murder, the tentative tranquillity in Lower Slaughter vanishes, replaced by the sinister connotations of the town's name.

Just ONE more book to read of Ms Tope's wonderful series, I have enjoyed The Cotswolds Mysteries so much, Ms. Tope is so insightful of human nature and the feelings of people, regarding death of a family member, interaction of sisters and feelings about a beloved dog, these and her outstanding writing make her books a fine combination of mystery and characters and places you want to know better.
