What lurks behind the charming façade?

Writer Mark Endicott moves to a Dorset village, where he buys the small, almost derelict Corpse Path Cottage. It occurs to him that it would make the ideal setting for a murder.

A sinister promise.

Before long, one of the village’s residents is mysteriously shot dead nearby.

Mark’s life begins to unravel even as he helps the police solve the mystery. In the process he uncovers a tale of intrigue, bigamy, and blackmail.

The secrets of the villagers won’t stay secret for long.

But at what cost?

Margaret Alice Scutt (1905–1988) was born in Weymouth, Dorset, where her father was Schoolmaster at St. John’s. Margaret also became a teacher, and after a career of over forty years she retired in 1966 as Deputy Head at Sylvan School, Poole. Throughout her life, Margaret wrote in many formats including short stories, playlets, and verse; two historical novels were published in 1947 and 1949, I Do But Follow and And Some There Be respectively.

James Langton trained as an actor at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama. An AudioFile Earphones Award winner, he has performed many voice-overs and narrated numerous audiobooks, including the international bestseller The Brotherhood of the Holy Shroud by Julia Navarro, The Virtues of War by Steven Pressfield, and The Demon's Lexicon by Sarah Rees Brennan.
