This four-book set brings together the opening instalments of Rebecca Tope’s Cotswold Mysteries, following Thea Osborne as she becomes drawn into a series of investigations across Gloucestershire villages. Set among the Cotswolds’ hills, lanes and close-knit communities, the collection centres on Thea’s attempts to make sense of unsettling events that disrupt seemingly peaceful places.
Across the novels, Thea arrives to house-sit, reconnects with friends, and seeks answers when deaths and disappearances occur close to home. From a scream in the night to a body discovered at an ancient site, each story builds on the tensions and secrets that lie beneath village life, as Thea searches for clarity while the police pursue their own lines of enquiry.
In Duntisbourne Abbots, recently widowed Thea Osborne arrives to house-sit at Brook View. A scream outside on her first night seems easy to dismiss, until a body is found. As she questions neighbours, Thea uncovers tragedy and intrigue behind the village’s calm exterior.
After two troubling house-sitting experiences, Thea hopes for a quieter period and time with DI Phil Hollis. As autumn approaches and preparations for Samhain begin, a body is discovered on Notgrove Barrow, laid out like a sacrificial victim. The investigation reveals a village with secrets, and the lengths some may go to keep them hidden.
Now Thea Slocombe, she takes a house-sitting job in Barnsley near Bibury during the summer holidays. When she finds a woman hiding and offers her shelter, the situation turns grim when the woman is found dead the next morning. With police attention focused on an animal trafficking investigation, Thea digs into the victim’s past and uncovers lies, secrets and multiple suspects.
While visiting a church in Baunton near Cirencester with her stepdaughter Stephanie, Thea reconnects with her friend Emmy, who asks for help finding her missing niece, Ginny. Before Thea can begin, she discovers the recently killed body of Alice, seen in Cirencester the day before. As Stephanie searches for Ginny through social media, Thea assists the police with the murder enquiry, and a link between Ginny and Alice emerges.
