The Colonel (few people call him Hugh) has settled into life in peaceful Dorset village Frogs End. He’s fixed his thatch roof, got the damp under control, and even acquired a cat called Thursday.
But a letter from his late wife’s friend sends him to the Wiltshire village of King’s Mowbray. She writes ‘something horrible has happened.’
Cornelia Heathcote, whose wealthy husband is away on business, has discovered a body buried under the floor of her barn.
First the Colonel must work out who the bones belong to. But that’s just the beginning of his problems. For this victim had many enemies in the wealthy village . . .
