When sharp-eyed dog walker Lila Hartwell discovers that Iris Vale's death may be more than a tragic accident, the quiet village of Thistledown begins to reveal its secrets.

With her loyal Great Dane, Bramble, at her side, Lila follows a trail of small but telling clues: a nervous housekeeper, a disputed inheritance, a missing notebook, and a tidy antique shop hiding an untidy past. As old grudges surface and village loyalties fray, Lila must untangle a web of lies before a carefully staged murder is buried as misfortune.

Set in a charming English village filled with eccentric locals, simmering tensions, and plenty of tea, this cozy mystery delivers a satisfying blend of wit, atmosphere, and suspense. Perfect for fans of clever amateur sleuths, loyal animal companions, and twisty mysteries with heart, this is the first Thistledown mystery.

If you love village secrets, elegant clues, and a determined heroine with a very perceptive dog, you'll adore this warm and wonderfully puzzling read.
