Grave in the Cotswolds

Undertaker Drew Slocombe is not having a good day. His business is failing, the car needs an MOT and hes driving 120 miles to the Cotswolds to carry out the late Greta Simmonds final wishes. Unfortunately, when he gets there, a string of mistakes leaves him the chief suspect of a murder inquiry. Hes beginning to wish he had never heard of Greta Simmonds.Thea Osborne is still pursuing her occupation as house-sitter, despite the disastrous incidents of the past. While staying in Greta Simmonds house, currently between ownership, she is torn between moving back home or waiting for the execution of the will. Then the discovery of a body in a nearby field takes the decision out of Theas hands, and she finds herself embroiled in a murder investigation once again. But Thea believes Drew Slocombe is innocent. As Thea and Drew work together to clear his name, it slowly dawns on them that in a village simmering with secrets, a means and a motive could be laid at anybodys door.
