"Anglophiles, especially, will adore this book's many pleasures." — Kirkus Reviews

"Not only is Alice Boatwright a good detective writer, but a first-class storyteller as well."— M.C. Beaton, author of the Agatha Raisin mysteries

In Under an English Heaven, the first Ellie Kent mystery, Ellie has left behind her college teaching job and life in San Francisco to marry a handsome widowed vicar and live in a Cotswold village. At first, she thinks her biggest challenge will be to gain acceptance from the villagers as a foreigner and "incomer." But, when she discovers a dead man in the churchyard, her outsider status leads to her becoming the prime suspect in his murder. To prove her innocence, Ellie finds she must draw on her research skills to unravel a web of decades-old secrets before more people die—and her new life unravels too.
