Death at the White Hart

When a murder shakes a sleepy British village, no one is above suspicion

After years of detective work in the big city, Nicola Bridge moves to the countryside, certainly not expecting the picturesque, sleepy village of Fleetcombe to become a horrific crime scene shortly after her arrival. The owner of the local pub, Jim Tiernan, has been found dead—his naked body, with stag antlers attached, staged in the middle of the road.
