A quest for a valuable manuscript turns into a hunt for its author’s killer. Meet Oxford’s Eve Brook, literary detective, as she tackles her first mystery.David Morrow, Oxford don and controversial media pundit, is found dead in his college rooms. Eve Brook is recruited to complete his latest book, a dazzling takedown of "woke" history. But the manuscript is missing, and everyone Eve meets seems to have something to hide—and a reason to want Morrow dead.Set against the backdrop of Oxford’s colleges, long train rides, quaint villages, and a tantalising cast of suspects, Death of an Englishman is—at first glance—a traditional murder mystery. But this is cosy crime with a very contemporary edge…

Old papers hide dangerous secrets. Old houses hide even more.Eve Brook, literary consultant and newly minted sleuth, expects a peaceful autumn: a hunt for ‘Hobbit gold’ in the papers of a forgotten contemporary of Tolkien and Lewis.Instead, in a crumbling Victorian villa in Oxford’s Norham Manor, she uncovers unsettling truths about her city’s past, disturbs an unquiet ghost, and crosses paths with someone hiding secrets of his own.New Year, and an invitation to a house party in a Jacobean manor deep in the Chilterns, offers a welcome escape; a few days to forget the musty papers and the darkness they reveal in a setting straight from the pages of her beloved crime fiction.But then, the body is found.Only months after her first case, Eve Brook is pulled into a new murder inquiry far more personal, and far more dangerous, than anything she’s encountered before. And this time, she must uncover the truth before the killer strikes again.
