Constable Evan Evans leaves behind the big city for the sleepy Welsh village of Llanfair. But murder follows him . . .

Evans has found the perfect home for his wife-to-be — a charming old shepherd’s cottage up in the mountains. He wastes no time digging over the garden to make space for his fiancée Bronwen’s rose bushes.

But under the flagstones he finds a human skeleton. And it looks like it belongs to a child.

Could this have anything to do with the little girl who went missing from Llanrwst twenty-five years ago?

Before Evans can start investigating, five-year-old Ashley Sholokhov vanishes from a caravan park by the sea.

Evans not only has a murder to solve, but a missing child to find. And the clock is ticking . . .

Constable Evan Evans has his work cut out in this charming cozy Welsh village mystery.

MEET THE DETECTIVE
Evan Evans is a fit, ambitious young detective who was in training in Swansea when his family was struck by tragedy. Feeling that nothing makes sense anymore, Evan escapes to his early childhood home in Snowdonia where he becomes a community policeman. But despite the idyllic setting he can’t help getting involved in major crimes. He is broad shouldered, keen on rugby and a pint — and the sort of decent chap you’d be happy to have as a son-in-law.

THE SETTING
Llanfair is a charming village high in the beautiful Welsh mountains of Snowdonia. It is peopled by a cast of quirky characters, including the butcher Evans-the-Meat, the dairyman Evans-the-Milk, the postman Evans-the-Post, two warring Methodist ministers, their more aggressively warring wives, a flirtatious barmaid at the Red Dragon pub and a beautiful, enigmatic schoolteacher. The people of Llanfair enjoy a simpler way of life, and uphold local traditions proudly.
