Situated in the rolling hills of England's pastoral Cotswolds, the Abbey is a charming Bed & Breakfast where guests taste the pleasures of rank and prestige from a bygone era—until murder slams face first onto its welcome mat. When the victim turns out to be someone close to both Maggie and Laurent, they leave their French vineyard to say goodbye—and to find out why. Once in England, they discover that the tranquil countryside of Shelley and Wadsworth can be every bit as treacherous as the most sinister backstreets of Marseilles.
