Story
Rob and Karan are a great couple, but they're tearing apart under the pressures of modern life. They both work as paramedics for the NHS, and just before Christmas, their plans for the future are in jeopardy. Rob knows he's on thin ice with the man he loves more than anyone else in the world, and he's at a loss to fix it. The job is getting tougher, and Karan, who's of Sikh descent, is facing violence on the streets in the wake of Britain's decision to leave the EU. Financial problems, hostile families on both sides.... Their troubles seem insoluble.

Story
Kestrel and Rory are the very best partnership in Wester Fleet's elite Mountain Rescue Team. They've trusted one another with their lives for five years. They're closer than brothers - but Rory's feelings for his handsome, daredevil partner are far from fraternal. He knows better than to tell Kes the truth. Climbing partnerships are a delicate balance of love and practicality, and the Fleet MRT has a strict nonfraternization code. Rory could lose everything by making a confession.

Davey Bell has been trying to live safely. He's struggled through a rough adolescence and has a decent job, a home of his own. He agrees to a meeting with his ex, even though Burdo got him into so much trouble in the past. But Burdo has plans, armed robbery among them. When Davey recoils from his efforts at blackmail, Burdo swears he'll track him down. There's something inhuman about Burdo's rage, and Davey panics and runs from him.

Marty Bell knows what it's like to be bullied. He was the shy, overweight kid at school, and those memories have helped turn him into an excellent teacher - though he's never spread his wings beyond the remote northern village where he grew up. The last thing he needs in his life is the reappearance of Devlin Surtees, leader of the gang who made his schooldays so tough. Dev is the glamorous village hero now, flying acrobatics planes and fighter jets for the RAF. He’s just as spellbinding, handsome and infuriating as Marty recalls.

He's young, sweet-natured, and gorgeous, but that's not enough to achieve escape velocity from his deadbeat village and rotten family life. He's a drifter and a dreamer, and self-preservation isn't his strong suit.

When a friend offers him winter work in a lighthouse, he gratefully accepts.

Publisher's summary
Gideon Frayne has spent his whole working life as a policeman in the village of Dark on Bodmin Moor. It's not life in the fast lane, but he takes it very seriously, and his first missing-child case is eating him alive. When his own boss sends in a psychic to help with the case, he's gutted - he's a level-headed copper who doesn't believe in such things, and he can't help but think that the arrival of clairvoyant Lee Tyack is a comment on his failure to find the little girl.
But Lee is hard to hate, no matter how Gideon tries. At first Lee's insights into the case make no sense, but he seems to have a window straight into Gideon's heart. Son of a Methodist minister, raised in a tiny Cornish village, Gideon has hidden his sexuality for years. It's cost him one lover, and he can't believe it when this green-eyed newcomer stirs up old feelings and starts to exert a powerful force of attraction.
Gideon and Lee begin to work together on the case. But there are malignant forces at work in the sleepy little village of Dark, and not only human ones - Gideon is starting to wonder, against all common sense, if there might be some truth in the terrifying legend of the Bodmin Beast after all. As a misty Halloween night consumes the moor, Gideon must race against time to save not only the lost child but the man who's begun to restore his faith in his own heart.

A hundred years ago, a man with a secret could travel a few hundred miles and give himself a new name and life story. No one would be any the wiser, as long as he didn’t give anyone a reason to start asking questions. These days, that’s not so easy, with everyone on social media and CCTV on every street corner. So Daniel Mackmain keeps his head down and keeps himself to himself. But now a girl has been murdered, and the Derbyshire police are taking a closer look at a loner who travels from place to place, picking up work as he goes.

Story
Twenty years ago, 16-year-old Tara Martin disappeared from a small town in the heart of England. Now, her sudden return and the mind-bending tale of where she’s been will challenge our very perception of the truth. For 20 years after Tara Martin disappeared, her parents and her brother, Peter, lived in denial of the grim fact that she was gone for good. Then suddenly on Christmas Day, the doorbell rings at her parents’ home, and there, dishevelled and slightly peculiar looking, Tara stands. It’s a miracle, but alarm bells are ringing for Peter. Tara’s story just does not add up.

There came an elastic aftershock of creaks and groans and then, softly softly, a chinking shower of rubbled cement. Leaves calmed and trunks stood serene. Where, not a minute before, there had been a suburb, there was now only woodland standing amid ruins. There is no warning. No chance to prepare. They arrive in the night: thundering up through the ground, transforming streets and towns into shadowy forest. Buildings are destroyed.

Excellent start, terrific narration
Once upon a Haunted Moor was an excellent start for a series and one I thoroughly enjoyed. Sure it was a bit rough around the edges, and I would’ve loved for it to be a full-length novel. But I enjoyed it all the same - and you can't have it all (unfortunately).
Even though this was such a short novel it was packed to the brim. The tale Fox created was wonderfully atmospheric. It's set in a small town named Dark, and the name truly fits the feelings Fox evokes with her words; a quiet town with mysterious creatures haunting the moors. At times you could feel the creepiness come crawling, scratching on your door, wanting to be let in. Just remember; "let naught but love enter in."
I liked both Gideon and Lee, they were good together. They are so very different, but they somehow just fit, I loved the fact that there was an attraction, between them, but that it wasn't insta-love. It ended with a tentative HFN; "let's see where this takes us" kind of thing. And I'm glad for that. I love when relationships have are able to progress naturally. Which is one of the reasons why, after finishing this book you immediately want to dive into book 2. You just *have* to know more.
Tim Gilbert was a good choice for narrating this book, His voice really contributes to the feelings, and the hauntings fox created with her words. Gilbert takes her words and makes them come alive.

Will it get better?
I liked the story and narration, but it was too short. Not much character building. The mystery was solved quickly and predictably. I’ll listen to the next one, but if it’s not longer and more in-depth, I probably won’t finish the series.

A gay romance sold as a mystery novel
I got this book for $1 and and I'm glad I got that deal. The book is rushed but well written, the narrator is good and the whole thing can be finished in one sitting. The plot and pacing is nothing special but it is competent despite having a very disappointing finale. This is more of short story than anything.
Where I take issue is the romance bait-and-switch. The summary would have you believe this is a mystery novel. It's not. There is a mystery yes, but the focus of this book is the romance. I can accept heavy romance in other genres but only as an aside, I do not read mysteries for prolonged descriptions of love-making. The romance in this case is homosexual and it feels like the author is preaching to his readers. The "sneak-peak" into the sequel literally details nothing of the plot and is entirely about the romance between the two leads. To me that speaks volumes on this series' priorities; not to craft a good mystery, but to chronicle a gay romance. Very disappointing.

Atmospheric mystery romance
3.75 for story & overall
I was enjoying this short story, but started to enjoyed it more with the introduction of Kai (old Cornish word for dog), Gideon's dog, an adorable, love-seeking, past herding female collie with a charming fluctuating personality. Who can resist?
The story is such a small taste of detective Gideon Frayne's life on the moors; that's probably the only disappointment. Included in this tale is clairvoyant and love interest, Lee Tyack, who was called in to help Mrs. Kempt find her missing daughter, Sara. Gideon was bothered by Lee's presence and help. The story had very likable characters. I even had pity for the culprit. And I enjoyed the small village feel. The mystery is ok, intriguing enough for a short story. There's a supernatural element that's left unanswered and remained an intriguing mystery at the end of the story, perhaps to continue in books to follow.
It has 1.5 brief M/M intercourse scenes and 1 spoken of in past tense. The narrator's ability and accent brings the story to life. The story is complete, but it's the start of a series, which is why it is insufficiently short. I wish there was more.
At the end, listeners get a preview of Tinsel Fish but no idea what the mystery will be.

A haunting mystery!!
I loved this novella set in the Cornish Moors!! As always, the setting was a character in full force in Harper Fox’s mystery.
This one involved a missing girl. Gideon, the police constable in the small village of Dark, has been doing all he can to find her.
A psychic offers his services, but while Gideon scoffs at his help, he uses him. Together, they solve the mystery.
I love the set up for this couple and can’t wait to see them in action in all the other books. They are sweet and sexy together.
The audiobook rocked! Tim Gilbert added an element of spookiness to Fox’s excellent setting!

OH MY GOD!
Tim Gilbert is perfection personified in his acting of Gideon, Lee and the cast. Harper Fox is a sublime weaver of tales of her beloved Cornwall and the moors.

Not for me.
A weak mystery filled with weaker gay sex scenes. If you like to read about law enforcement officers shoving their erections into psychics, you'll enjoy this more than I did.
