Revenge in the Cotswolds

Bad blood trickles through the Cotswold countryside...

Thea Osborne is determined to avoid trouble during her latest commission house-sitting in the pretty Cotswold village of Daglingworth.

While Thea can empathise with the activists' views against wind farms and building developments, she is not so sure about their violent methods. As real tensions begin to simmer, even Thea, a seasoned crime-solver, is surprised by the truth . . .
