Trouble Next Door: A warm, gently humorous mystery about family, community, and seeing the world differently.($13.06Value)

Description

Everyone on Fairfield Close is asking what really happened at the Joneses’. Only Jack might actually know … but nobody's asking him. A cosy mystery with heart, set in a very English village. When Helen Somerfield’s neighbours, Doctor and Mrs Jones, vanish under suspicious circumstances from the house next door, the quiet cul-de-sac becomes the centre of a police investigation. Helen tries to shield her twelve-year-old son Jack from the speculation that follows, but Jack, whose observant, unconventional way of seeing the world often lands him in trouble, is more worried about the disappearance of his beloved Blue Ted. What no one realises is that Jack may hold the key to the whole mystery. While quietly watching the badgers in the field behind the houses, he has unwittingly set events in motion. As gossip spreads, a compulsory purchase order threatens the Close, and Jack's sister Maisie waits for the airing of her radio interview with her Local Hero – the now-missing Doctor Jones – misunderstandings multiply, and the truth slowly begins to emerge. A warm, gently humorous cosy mystery about family, community, and seeing the world differently. The first Fairfield Close Mystery.
