About this listen
Meet Ellie Swan... a history-loving bookworm trying to rebuild her life in her childhood hometown.
After solving the mystery of the missing manuscript and saving her grandmother’s beloved bookshop, Meadowfield Books, Ellie is slowly settling into her new role as manager. But just as life begins to feel stable, the quiet village of Meadowfield is shaken by another unexpected mystery. This time, the victim is Tim Baker, a promising young photographer whose life was tragically cut short in 1994. A hidden accusation pointing to a potential murderer has resurfaced under the wallpaper in the bookshop, bringing questions—and long-buried secrets—back into the light.
Ellie is drawn into the mystery when the Ghost Watch Club, an eccentric group fascinated by local hauntings, reveals its connection to Tim’s death. As she delves deeper, Ellie uncovers strange phenomena, faked supernatural sightings, and a tangled web of motives stretching across decades. From a photographer and a guilt-ridden pub owner to a scientist whose experiments might have gone too far, everyone seems to be hiding something.
Balancing her grandmother’s expectations, a blossoming romance she can’t quite figure out, and her growing reputation as Meadowfield’s unofficial sleuth, Ellie must use her historical expertise and sharp intuition to solve the mystery. But as new evidence comes to light, Ellie realises she’s not just unravelling the truth about Tim’s past—she’s exposing dangerous secrets someone is desperate to keep buried. Can Ellie untangle the threads of Meadowfield’s most chilling mystery yet, or will the truth prove too much for the quiet bookshop owner to handle?
Find out in The Plot Thickens, the second book in the NEW Meadowfield Mysteries series, a quintessentially British cosy mystery series packed with heart, charm, and a cracking mystery full twists and turns. Perfect for those who love a good puzzle served up with a side of tea and village gossip.
Discover the secrets of Meadowfield, where every page turned is a clue unveiled...
