Synopsis

Dido loads baby Ben and his toys into the van and drives down to rural Somerset to spend a couple of restful weeks with a cousin. Ally and her husband have moved there to keep an eye on his old parents who live in the local manor house where, four years ago, the family's youngest son shot and killed an intruder in the library. He is about to turn up after having served a term for manslaughter. And there are all sorts of chickens coming home to roost. The village turns out to be very different from St. Mary Mead (consider the drugs traffic in the village pub, for instance). And what on earth has happened to Peter Rabbit?

Author Bio
Marianne Macdonald was born in Northern Ontario and raised in Winnipeg and Montreal until the age of twenty, when she went to Oxford to do graduate work For the next thirty years she followed an academic career, then gave up teaching to return to the writing she'd loved as a child, and to acting, which she'd also given up after university. She lives in Muswell Hill and her hobbies include photography, old movies, walking her very large dogs, travel, worrying about the socio-economic development of the contemporary world, and taking long hot baths when any of the above threatens to overwhelm her.
