DESCRIPTION:
A stream of bikes speeding along the road in the annual cycle race. And one in a ditch upside down, wheels still spinning… with a body lying next to it. Can Kitty Underhay get to the bottom of this?
England, 1938. Kitty Underhay is enjoying a stroll in the Yorkshire town where she and her husband Matt are visiting his family. As she stops to take in the rolling hills, she suddenly sees a most unexpected sight. There’s a bike in the ditch just along the road… and the cyclist is dead.
Abandoning her plans for a picnic with Matt, the pair start to piece together what happened. But there’s more than meets the eye to the man now pushing up daisies. The victim is no stranger; it appears he has unexpected Devon connections. Why is he here? And who is behind his murder? Has his ex-girlfriend hit the brakes? Or could it be the woman he was courting in secret? And the other cyclists aren’t faultless either…
But just as Kitty and Matt set the wheels in motion and the investigation picks up speed, there’s another murder, shaking up the quiet country town further. Then Kitty and Matt realise that they too have been marked by the killer, and the duo need to unearth the connection between the two murders immediately…
Can Kitty and Matt catch the killer before they get to the finish line? Or will it be game over for both of them by the end of the race…?

Kitty and her husband, Matt Bryant, are in Yorkshire and looking forward to enjoying a bicycle race. Kitty decides to take a stroll before the festivities and notices a bicycle lying in a ditch. It looks fairly new, so she wonders if one of the riders lost their footing and had no choice but to leave it behind. But when Kitty investigates further, she discovers the rider. Shockingly, the rider’s body is mostly submerged in the mud and is very much dead!
Needless to say, the lovely afternoon Kitty had planned, including a picnic with Matt, is not going to happen. Instead, Kitty and Matt immediately begin searching for answers. But their investigation doesn’t move quickly enough to prevent another murder. The connection between the victims soon becomes a priority, especially when Kitty and Matt realize that danger may be much closer than they expected.
Set in 1938 England, this historical cozy mystery series follows Kitty and Matt as they visit his parents in Yorkshire. With their unique skills and personalities, the two make a terrific crime-solving team. This was an entertaining and enjoyable mystery, and I’m looking forward to seeing what happens in the next installment!
