The war brought strangers to Bramblewood. One of them was hiding more than most.

Eloise has escaped from a dark past and with the shackles of poverty behind her, she is ready to start her new role as a Land Girl in Bramblewood Village.

But a twist of fate leaves her stood over a body in the woods and everyone thinks she’s guilty. So, faced with the very real possibility of being sent back to the life she clawed her way out of, Eloise is determined to prove her innocence and find the real killer.

With the help of the young PC who helped untangle Bramblewood’s last case they find more than just a simple murder. They find a mystery that goes back to the 1920s, a Jazz club, and a notorious gang leader called The Black Scorpion.
