Publisher's Synopsis
Evan Evans is settling into his role as constable of Llanfair, a small town nestled in the mountains of North Wales. While Llanfair has always been at odds with the neighbouring town of Beddgelert, an intriguing archaeological find in the nearby hills brings that rivalry to dangerous extremes and creates a circus of local enthusiasm and gossip. The circus quickly turns deadly, however, when Llanfair's prodigal son, Ted Morgan, announces plans to erect an amusement park over the site's excavation. Soon Constable Evans is drawn into a whirl of cultural pride, deception, and greed.
