Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A trusted landlord. A deadly pint. A village hiding darker secrets.

Welcome to Bramblewick, where murder gets brewed.

The Bramblewick Ale Festival is THE village event of the year, and at the heart of the festivities is the Grass is Greener public house. Local landlord Owen Fletcher has been secretly aging a special brew in oak just for the occasion. Dubbed "The Settler's Brew," Owen was sure it would be the perfect pint to kick off the celebrations....

Until the barrel was rolled out, upended... and Owen was found slumped over, deceased in the fermenting cellar.

Amy Finch showed up bright and early that day with coffee and baked goods to find the cellar door wedged open, Owen sprawled across broken glass and spilled brew. Clutched in his hand? An empty glass vial.

Inspector Reeves is quick to assume he was poisoned. But Amy knows better. Because Owen Fletcher hadn't been upfront about his past. He has secrets from two decades ago!

Now it looks like someone followed him to Bramblewick seeking revenge.

The list of suspects is growing by the pint. From his recently widowed wife Diana, who knew everything about his secret. To brother-in-law Tom who showed up in town suspiciously soon before the murder. Competitor brewer Margo Penrose, who Owen outsmarted twenty years ago and who still holds a generations-old grudge. Not to mention Sarah Blake, a woman with ties to Bramblewick's own deadly history.

Amy soon realises there's more than brewing secrets dividing the men of Bramblewick. Familial resentment, theft, and lies stretch back twenty years and extend far beyond Bramblewick itself. If Amy can piece together the past, she may solve Owen's murder before the killer strikes again.
