Genre: Mystery
Murder in the Goblins’ Playground (#1) Just outside Ashford village, in legend-haunted Hammershire County, there is a megalithic structure called the Goblins’ Playground. Located deep in Red Cap Woods, it has long been the site of weird events, from pagan rites to human sacrifice by secret devil cults. When local rowdy Allan Cutter staggers into the snug bar of the Three Crowns pub and dies, old fears that have lain dormant for ages come to the fore. His death is quickly followed by the murder of a developer who planned to destroy Red Cap Woods. Villagers believe dark powers are awakening, that the murderous elves reputed to dwell in the woods will again dip their caps in human blood. Into this maelstrom of fear and emotion come DCI Arthur Ravyn and DS Leo Stark. As the bodies continue to mount, they discover it will take all their combined skills, intellect and courage to solve the mysterious deaths, keep the villagers from panicking, and not get sacked by powers even more inimical than those lurking in the eldritch depths of Red Cap Woods.
Village of Ghosts (#2) Many residents of Little Wyvern, a village in legend-haunted Hammershire County, don’t have a pulse. The village boasts a population greater than can be seen with the naked eye. Ghosts walk among the living, will-o’-the-wisps roam the old graveyard of St Barnabas Church, and many cottagers set table-places for guests still with them after a hundred years or more. A balance is maintained between living and deceased…until a few villagers form FOG, Friends of Ghosts, and mount a national campaign to make Little Wyvern "England’s Most Haunted Village." The scheme will bring in outside revenue, but most villagers—alive or dead—tend to keep themselves to themselves and resent outsiders. When murder strikes FOG, villagers believe the most likely suspect is a vengeful wraith angered by the plan to exploit the dead. But DCI Arthur Ravyn and DS Leo Stark of the Hammershire Constabulary are on the hunt for a killer with a more earthly nature, before he strikes again.
