Ring for Tomb Service

The villagers of Badger’s End eagerly await St. Bartholomew’s Week, an annual celebration of the church’s founding filled with pageantry, merriment, and a grand feast that draws visitors from miles around.

But this year’s festivities are thrown into jeopardy when the church bell ringer is found dead on the rocks below Devil’s Cauldron.

While the villagers whisper about accidents, curses, and divine judgment, Cecily Sinclair suspects something far more earthly: murder. And when the victim’s secrets begin to surface, she discovers that more than one person may have wanted him silenced.

At the Pennyfoot Hotel, discretion is a way of life. Its Edwardian guests indulge in scandalous affairs and private gambling, while the downstairs staff knows better than to repeat what it sees. But with Scotland Yard threatening to interfere and the village celebration hanging in the balance, Cecily must expose the killer before St. Bartholomew’s Week ends in another death.

An atmospheric coastal village mystery featuring churchyard secrets, a deadly cliffside discovery, festival intrigue, and a determined woman sleuth.
