Descrizione
Harold Fenton rang the bells every Tuesday for forty years. This Tuesday, someone made sure he stopped.
Woodstock, June 1950. When the church sexton is found dead in the bell tower, the police see a tragic accident. Hester Croft sees a rope wound too neatly and hands without a mark on them.
Harold had been asking questions — about the war, about Blenheim Palace, about silver that went missing and was never found. Now his notebook is gone and his questions have died with him. Or so someone hopes.
As Hester and Gertie dig into a conspiracy that reaches back a decade, the killer moves to protect themselves — framing an innocent man with the one detail only a murderer would know.
Oranges and lemons, say the bells of St Clement's. You owe me five farthings, say the bells of St Martin's…
Everyone owes something in Woodstock. The question is who's willing to kill to clear the debt.
