Nothing ever seems to happen in the sleepy English town of Mumford unless you count the man with the axe in his back, staggering down the street getting blood everywhere and leaving a vacancy on the Parish Council . . .

But when he teams up with a writer researching a detective novel, together they blunder towards the identity of the‘vacant casualty’, just hoping to get there before everyone in the town is murdered.
