Evil Unearthed Progress has overtaken the charming English village of Bamford in the Cotswolds—and Chief Inspector Alan Markby resents the heartless desecration of his boyhood home. But when a bulldozer uncovers the corpse of a mystery man buried alive on what was once Lonely Farm, Markby realizes that shopping malls and fast-food may be the least of Bamford’s woes. Having accepted her friend Markby’s invitation to spend some vacation time in the country, consular officer Meredith Mitchell once again finds herself embroiled in a murder investigation. For just beneath the surface of this quaint, quiet community, something sordid and deadly is growing—a devastating evil that must be weeded out of one family’s garden of terrible secrets.
