Summary

Looking for a brilliant best-selling murder mystery with a feisty female detective?

Meet DI Hillary Greene, a policewoman struggling to save her career and catch criminals.

Wayne Sutton is found dead by a stream in a beautiful meadow. His head has been bashed in and a red paper heart left on his body. The handsome young artist had a reputation as a ladies' man. DI Hillary Greene discovers that many wealthy married women were buying his paintings and taking ‘private' art lesson from him. It appears that several of them might have wanted him dead.

Hillary also has a new detective sergeant, Gemma Fordham. Seemingly efficient and pleasant, she harbours a secret agenda. Can Hillary get to the bottom of a complex case involving jealousy, love and cold-blooded murder?

This is a crime mystery full of well-observed characters, which will have you gripped from start to finish. Murder in the Meadow is the seventh in a series of crime thrillers set in Oxfordshire. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Colin Dexter or Ruth Rendell.

Another good book in the series

I love this series, the crime plots are good. It is a little unfortunate that the narrator mispronounces some words.

An enjoyable tale

The story is good. The plot follows on from previous stories in a relatively plausible way - and the climax is intriguing.
I just wish the narrator would take more care with pronunciation at times! Some words are clearly misread, and this distracts from the story!
