One buried body.
Many hidden secrets.
When the body of a teenage girl is discovered, the villagers of Birkbury close ranks to protect their secrets.
Gossip turns to fear and suspicion as they realise the killer is one of them and is prepared to kill again.
Beneath the good manners and polite smiles, DCI Hatherall discovers deep-seated resentments and family feuds going back decades. The stakes are raised when another girl goes missing.
Will the police uncover the killer before it is too late?
The Skeletons of Birkbury, A Peter Hatherall Mystery by Diana J Febry was an outstanding cozy mystery set in the English countryside. Detective Chief Inspector Peter Hatherall is very good at his job, but his personal life is a mess. A body is discovered hidden in the rural countryside, setting off village-wide fear and accusations. But fear not! Peter and his junior officer Fiona are on the case. Excellent story, well told. I highly recommend.
