The Killings At Badger's Drift by Caroline Graham
An old lady witnesses something in the woods as she's searching for an orchid. Something so terrible, someone is willing to kill her to keep it hidden. But as soon as the police is involved, thanks to the lady's nosy neighbor, more and more secrets are coming out...
An interesting murder mystery with multiple possible suspects, loads of red herrings and a surprising final reveal.
Unfortunately, it was also very slow with a quite a plodding pace and some of the filler scenes were rather boring and dull.
I much prefer the series, actually, including the characterization of Barnaby and Troy.
