A new arrival to Lakehurst village can only mean trouble for Reverend Nick Lawrence ?
The residents of the sleepy Sussex village of Lakehurst are abuzz with the news of the arrival of the new owner of Abbot?s Manor. Gerry Harlington, a flamboyant American actor famous for playing the Wasp Man in several Hollywood movies, has taken residence with his glamorous Russian wife Ekaterina.
The local dramatic society is looking for a new director for their Son et Lumire show to be staged at Fulke Castle and it seems at first that Gerry might fit the bill. All seems well, until Gerry?s attempt to insert a hip-hop street dance into an Elizabethan Fair scene is met with violent protest from the amateur actors.
So when a corpse is discovered after the grand opening night, Reverend Nick Lawrence once again finds himself welcoming Detective Inspector Dominic Tennant to Lakehurst, and he doesn?t have to look very far to find potential suspects ?
