What Lies Beneath the Cairn

Book 5 of the Llangynog Murders

When a neighbor disappears from a farm near Llangynog, DCI Will Cooper tackles the first case he is assigned to work from the cottage he shares with his fiancée Bronwyn Bagley. Desperate to prove that he can follow the rules he’s broken so often in the past, he throws himself into the investigation as it leads through a tangle of family, lovers, and money. Complicating the case is the fact that the victim, Evan Bennett, was not a likeable man, and every suspect on the list has motive, means, and opportunity to murder him. While Will strives to prove he can solve a case far from the resources the station in Caernarfon provides, he must also balance his job with preparations for his upcoming wedding and the parenting of his niece Lark. Bronwyn helps where she can, but like Will, she suffers lingering doubts about their upcoming wedding, feeling overwhelmed and guilty, too, because of the secrets she continues to keep, even from Will. Fast-moving and filled with family drama, this latest novel in the Llangynog Murders series will keep you guessing until the very end.
