Murder On the Moor (2011)
Murder On the Moor
“The old stone lodge in the valley breasted the rain against a smudged green backdrop of hill and forest. Loch Lown stretched before it, lurking with its secrets beneath a shroud of mist. Would he ever be able to view the loch again without seeing Moira’s body floating face down at the surface?
As he darted across the lawn, he was relieved to count all eight guests through the living room window. Helen, staring toward the loch, gave a sudden movement when she saw him. He shot a finger to his... lips. He did not want to announce his presence to the others just yet.
Before entering the house, he took a detour to the stable to ensure Honey was safely inside and not roaming about wreaking more damage to his new plantings. Nor did he relish the prospect of rounding her up. A more ill-natured creature he had yet to encounter outside captivity. She only seemed content when she was munching on something—preferably something of his.
Recovering his breath after the sprint across the glen, he peered through the small window at the near end of the stable and managed to glimpse the pony’s honey-hued rump sticking out from the stall.MoreLess
