Publisher's Summary
Kate Palmer has relocated to Cornwall for a quiet life. Moving into picturesque Lavender Cottage with her sister, Angie, the little village of Lower Tinworthy should be the perfect place for their fresh new start. But within weeks of their arrival, there’s a death in the close-knit community....
A woman is found dead in the village hall, with her own kitchen knife next to the body, covered in blood. Kate, a practice nurse at the local medical center, begins to piece together the clues. Fenella was at the center of village activity, and there seem to be plenty of people who had reason to dislike her. But did any of them hate her enough to kill her?
As Kate gets drawn into life in Lower Tinworthy, she begins a close friendship with Detective Inspector "Woody" Forrest, who is near to retiring - and determined to crack his last case. Together, they set about solving the mysterious crime.
But when someone breaks into Kate’s home and leaves a warning note on her pillow, it becomes clear the murderer is prepared to do anything to keep their identity hidden.... Will Kate work out who’s responsible before she becomes the next victim?
If you love murder mysteries by Agatha Christie, Faith Martin, or Joy Ellis, then this novel will have you listening late into the night!

enjoyable
Enjoyed this book on audible. Good story with lots of suspects. Three stars because i didn't always find the main character likeable. Despite her being a nurse, I found her a little judgemental towards her sister ... but maybe that's a bit like real life.

Storyline interesting but let down by narrator
I was hooked on the storyline and that is why I finished this book. However the narrators voice was distracting and just plain annoying at times. I would like to hear this book with another narrator. One that doesn’t sound like she has a plum in her mouth. Though the other books interest me, I don’t think I could listen to the narrator again.

Body in the village hall.
Love a good mystery. People think sleepy little villages are just that. Just look a little under the surface. Can't wait for the next in the Kate Palmer series. Well done.

Banal
Banal and highly unlikely. The main character persists in making such ridiculous decisions, despite being an intelligent woman and her sister Angie is plain aggravating. A much more judicious edit could have done wonders for this.
