If you are planning a vacation to a charming British hamlet, this illustrated handbook from bestselling writer Maureen Johnson and artist Jay Cooper will make you reconsider the hidden dangers of country living. It is an excellent match for enthusiasts of traditional cozy detective fiction. A short getaway spent walking down historic cobblestone paths, exploring historic estates, and enjoying drinks at the local tavern sounds idyllic. However, your trip changes drastically if you end up in a deceptively pleasant settlement where your life is constantly at risk and a simple hot beverage could be poisoned.
If you still decide to go on your journey, carrying this small volume could save your life! Featuring numerous dark, Edward Gorey-style illustrations and filled with nods to famous detective stories and British true crime history, this manual equips you with the necessary strategies to survive a visit or a daydream about a dangerous countryside destination. Stay alert, and make sure to stay away from the local clergyman.
