1. Murder In The Barn (aka Gathering of Ghosts)
It starts with a simple planning request . . . Rampton Farm, Northumberland, has always been a gloomy, godforsaken place. Now it’s earmarked for demolition — to make way for just another tawdry amusement park. It will be progress. And nothing can stand in the way. Except perhaps Arnold Landon, the Planning Officer who must glean the lie of the land. Medieval architecture is Arnold’s passion. And scouting the grounds, he makes a thrilling discovery. The Old Wheat Barn. He is captivated the moment he crosses the threshold. Its walls echo with whispers of the past. Then and there, he realises he must save it from the developers. But his efforts meet with hostile resistance. And then the barn offers up its most shocking secret yet. A dead body, sprawled in the straw. What other crimes lay hidden in the dark history of the barn? Arnold won’t rest until he uncovers the truth.
2. Murder In The Manor (aka Most Cunning Workmen)
Arnold Landon can’t help but feel drawn to Oldham Manor, an atmospheric medieval house in the middle of nowhere. When he is invited to catalogue the library there, he jumps at the chance. The place is a maze of musty old papers and books. And that’s not all. Late one night, he stumbles on a secret passage, twisting deep under the ground. Where will it take him? And why was it walled up? When a stranger turns up dead in a ditch, Landon begins to realise that someone is watching his every move. And they have a plan to ensure the past stays buried for good. What did the victim know that was worth killing for?
3. Murder In The Farmhouse (aka A Trout in the Milk)
Arnold Landon finds himself drawn into another bitter dispute over land — in which a defenceless old woman pays the ultimate price. To the casual observer, Penbrook Farm might seem like a ramshackle hovel, buried deep in the woods of Northumberland. But to fragile old Sarah Ellis, it’s home. And the developers can have the place over her dead body. Of course, no one ever expected it to come to that . . . Least of all Arnold Landon, the peaceable planning officer assigned to Sarah’s case. Late one night, he calls at the farmhouse to find the place in darkness. By the fire’s dying embers, he can make out a body, lying on the hard stone flags. Who wanted the farm so badly they were ready to kill for it? And what has become of Sarah’s battered old prayerbook? In life she carried it with her constantly. Does it also hold the key to the mystery of her death?
